I don't know about you but I will plan with what I will do and where I will be in 5 years.

I have thought of working in the oil and gas industry but the prospect in these companies are not that good though they pay really well
Firstly there are plenty of first class graduates being recruited. Opportunity to climb will be restricted.
Secondly, these companies are super duper rich and they hire graduates to do jobs that are not usually associated with graduates. Like supervisor in a manufacturing line is considered a promotion after a few years working in the company. Resulting in not relevant job experience and hence less job hopping opportunities.
