Title: Drilling Engineer
Age: 25
Company: Chevron
Based in: Houston, TX
"While I was still in college I interned for Chevron on a project building a drilling rig. I loved my job, and at my exit interview, when I was asked what I would like to do in a full-time position, I asked for a job offshore, drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. I thought I was asking for the moon. When I got an offer to be a drill site manager in the Gulf of Mexico, it was everything I'd asked for. I couldn't turn it down."
