Where are the Linemen?
Featured SponsorBesides powerlineman.com and monster.com - where can you find most lineman journeyman/apprentices? Where do you all look for jobs online or in publications (magazines, journals, etc)? Is this the only place?

Most utilities and larger contractors have websites. On those websites is usually a page called “careers”.
Also:
Try the local newspapers classified “jobs”.Have Trampbag, Will Travel
Everyone who comes here brings a little joy.
Some when they come in. Others when they leave.

Also your not going to get into a large utility as a lineman. Unless your already a lineman. Get in any way you can. Meter reader, floor sweeper, anything. Then you can 'bid' into the line dept.

Pad up your resume
Featured SponsorrYou can and should enter into one of many schools around the country that gives you the skills to become an apprentice lineman. You need to man-up and dedicate yourself to this and only this if you want into this trade. You HAVE TO be better than all around you to compete for the attention of anyone looking for apprentices. Good Luck...
