My Career with ExxonMobil and Tips for a Successful Start of Your Professional Life

Maria Koutsona.

I started working for ExxonMobil in 2002, as a Real Time Optimization (RTO) Engineer. I have worked in several different positions in the past 20 years, which has made my experience more diverse. In this talk, I would like to give you an overview of the jobs I have had so far, and some tips on how you can start and develop your career. I hope I will be able to provide you  with enough knowledge on this topic, so that you will know all the opportunities and risks involved in this enriching journey.
