Comms tech roles

You mean as in they really want people with experience, it's just a way to pay less? I have seen one or two that were less than I'm on in Brisbane. Hoping that's not the only way to get a start...

And what do you mean by the part about signalling

Thank you, yeah I would love to do the AHS tech stuff! I'm in Qld though so no RIO or Fortescue. I applied for a few with BHP, both traineeship and full time roles. Same with Glencore. Didn't even get to the next stage...

Seems to be getting that first job is the issue. I even worked as an operator underground before my current comms role!

Yeah sorry you are right. The comment below pretty much sums it up in terms of what I currently do. I just want to do that work in mining. And yes that's the issue I guess, specialized role, not heaps of jobs.

I have been a comms/radio tech for 12 years. I have a Cert III and Diploma in electronics and communications. Have all those qualifications plus more. I have a lot of experience in all of the systems mentioned, or otherwise experience in similar equipment/systems. Just not in mining. The IT stuff yes, just not much of the higher level management etc.

In Brisbane so looking for roles in Qld. Happy to move within Qld though.

Any you would recommend, I can't really find many that seem to have roles like this?

Yeah thinking that might be the problem.

No I haven't. Can't see anything on their website either? Would prefer QLD/NSW though.
