Engineering info please!

Hi i am looking to be able to work abroad in the future and am asking for any advice or info from you expats!
I am currently an Apprentice with BAE Systems working as a Pipe Fabricator/Fitter Engineer, training to NVQ Level 3 and higher, working on Ships and Submarines. Does anyone know if this type of work is available in Canada, if not in marine then in the Oil/Gas industries or Pipelines?
Thanks.:thumbsup:

I would imagine that normally this type of experience would be useful for the oil and gas industry. BUT, a lot of oil and gas projects are being cancelled at the moment and the associated companies relying on these projects have been laying off in the 1000s

Have a look and see if your profession is listed and send in your resume, get a riddle on. ;)

Good Luck

No probs.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to PM me :)

I hope you have looked at the website, it would be one of the quicker ways for you to get out here if you fancy Alberta.
