Alberta oilfield driving jobs

I went online and applied to a bunch of ads on jobbank, sent them my resume and abstract. Got a number of offers. Some people claim this doesn't work and had more success going to Alberta and knocking on doors in person. You are likely to get offers in person that you wouldn't have received with just a resume.

 

Guess i`ll have to wait till next year and go out vacation time.I don`t know how many resumes i sent.Not one reply.

 

That happened to me too, so I made a new resume. I also got my safety tickets so if someone needed a driver in a hurry it was convenient to choose me.

 

I really don`t understand it.If there`s so much work,why don`t anybody reply.I know people from here that got a job out west and never even really tried.I have different skills in areas and can`t even get someone to look sideways at me.

 

Its breakup so not as much demand, and maybe your resume doesn't make as good an impression as it could at first glance?

 

so you out there working now?

 

just depends when the employers looking and if you send your resume at the right time. also your pretty far away. if your resume looks the same as someone from bc. guess who there going to hire

 

Can`t blame them there.

 

Was till breakup. Looking for a new Job now. Flint is interested but I'm in no rush, made great money while I was there.
