Industrial Staffing is the Backbone of the Construction Industry for 2009

Industrial Staffing is the backbone of the construction industry in its unique ability to keep skilled tradesmen working in the industry they have known all their lives. Not an easy feat when the economy and project starts are down. All time low’s are being recorded everyday, this is the time of the construction staffing and industrial construction staffing methodology to show its worth.

Tradesmen in this industry are finding the internet a hot tool for accomplishing the task of find a industrial construction job or staffing extra tradesmen and journeymen on a temporary basis. The website of Grus, Inc. feature a Hot Job Alert notification system designed to allow keep workers informed and working. Additionally, Grus features a profile selection process so contractors and sub-contractors can hand pick the tradesmen they want to work with and then move on to listen to a recorded interview of that candidate.

The internet is saving our recession from depression in ways we cant grasp now. With the internet and other advanced technology our recession will never amount to the depression of the 30’s – we just have too many new markets for money to be made and we have a global economy now.

Industrial Construction and Industrial Staffing will boon in the coming weeks, with contractors having already laid off their permanent workforce they are seeking temporary skilled workers to complete newly awarded industrial construction projects in greater numbers every week.

Industrial Staffing keeps workers working and keeps costs low for contractors to earn larger profits. Since the industrial staffing company can handle all the recruiting, interviewing, payroll, and testing, this leaves more time for industrial contractors to market their services and reach new agreements with new vendors further extending the savings and profits in this recession of ‘08

How do do you get a job in the construction industry?

I am looking to change careers and want to get into the construction industry. Any help on how to land a job? Thanks.
PS. I’m in the Atlanta area, but would relocate to either Seattle or Columbus Ohio.

My kind of person! What kind of construction do you want to get into? Carpentry, masonry, iron working, welding, pipefitting, millwright, insulation, QA/QC, inspection… you really opened a can of worms here.

I got in it through inspection nondestructive testing (NDT). X-ray, magnetic particle, penetrant, ultra sound, YAH BABY! It’s light blue collar work. If you get your API certifications you could make $100k/year pretty easy.

I would suggest contacting CONAM inspection. They are a quality company. My second choice would be TEAM inc.

There is a CONAM lab in Cleavland (216) 674-0626, Heath (740) 788-9188, Seattle (206) 764-8123. Down South there are labs in Mobile (251) 443-5290, their all over the country really. Just go to http://www.conaminsp.com and check it out. Its’ a lot easier to get into than you think. Tell them you are interested in getting your ASNT level 1 certifications.
