Applying to companies that don't come to your campus

So I'm in an energy oriented program in the South, very close to Houston. However, I'm not completely sure, but I don't think the biggest O&G companies come on campus to recruit for corporate finance programs. From the research I've done on their websites, it seems like the only way they recruit is threw OCR. Any insight on this process and trying to break into one of these companies that don't come to your school?

probably going to need to learn to spell 'through' first.

but reach out to alumni and have them like you enough to forward your resume.
