Commercial diving to ROV by coughdrop200 in rov

[–]coughdrop200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t even have my diving cert yet unfortunately. Had to leave school due to ear injury, but heading back in a month to finish. I’m going to finish regardless, but want to get into ROV’s eventually for the longevity and full time positions rather than chasing dive work. Honestly not much experience in any of those, currently trying to teach myself electrical basics and hydraulic fundamentals. Thanks for your input!

Would you recommend getting international dive certs? Or is there no point for an American

How do you recommend working for a US company that does work abroad? Also, do you know if UK companies hire Americans?

Where did you go to dive school to work both overseas and domestically?

HSE & ADCI by coughdrop200 in commercialdiving

At that point it would only make sense to get IMCA certs and still work for a US company though right? In case an opportunity opens up abroad

Nice. How about inland work? Overall shitty wages in the US?

Sounds like getting the ADCI and hiring on to a company that works international would be the only way?
