Are U IBEW ?

Jon O in Fort Worth, Texas said: I couldn't tell you about the WABI. When I went over in 2006 only drivers were required to take it. I don't think it's that hard, I know a few of those drivers. Some of them couldn't hardly write their names. Of course, you have to be a little crazy to willingly want to go over there, so, I'm not sure how good the test is anyway.

I did not do good enough i guess for the positions i applied for.
The test seemed more trickery than anything else.
I am a good IBEW Trained Electrician and they need the jobs filled.
I was turned down because of the results of WABI test.
Any further help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

My name is Jeff Gibbs I am out of IBEW 861 Lake Charles La. card # d767830. I took the wobi test in 05 and all I did was answer everything as honest as I could. They asked if I exceed the posted speed limit when I drive I said yes. They asked why, I said I feel safer putting other drivers behind me so they can't wreck me. The questions are to see how you react in certain situations. I also noticed if you have ever taken the test once and passed and were deployed they would not make you take it again. I know KBR is only taking people with a state lic. so I'm going to try to get a TX. lic. as soon as I find out where, when, how much, and where to get a refresher course. Any help would be appreciated. My email is

I am a US citizen and am willing to go to Canada. I am a member of of the IBEW local 613 in Atlanta. I was wondering if they are letting members from the US work up there since there is a shortage of workers up there. If they are hiring from overseas, surely they would allow Americans to work their as well. Can you give us any more information on this.

I am moving to South Asia with my wife. Her job has transfered her there, and I am looking for a job there before we get there. I have come across NationalCareerNet.com, but I wanted to know if anyone knows anything about it first. Whats the word?

Hi James. My name is Alex. I was working At Firebag ( Suncor ) couple of years.I just wandering who you working for, because recently I have
got my master electrician ticket and looking for better position or money.

Alex,
If you are clearing $2300 per week I know you are putting in 7 day shifts. So it would be hard to beat your earing potential. If you are looking for a lifestyle change and work less hours I may be able to help you there otherwise I would suggest you stay where you are at.

Let me know your thoughts.

apprentices, incase no one has told you, as an apprentice you are kinda owned by the jatc/ibew if you go anywhere out side of the u.s. or canada to a non ibew company , you will get droped from the apprentiship program, unless something has just changed.

No, nothing has changed. In fact, in local 46, just south of Matt's 191, we have a 18K loan we have to repay if we leave the apprenticeship or work non-union in the 5 years following turning out, so Matthew may want to look real carefully at what sort of agreement 191 had him sign when he joined.

After investigating further work overseas for apprentices is permitted as long as its cleared by the JATC training director, and the training committee.

I am an Electrician looking to get some experience working in the US I hear New Orleans is desperate for people

Jmaes in Edmunton said he was making $2300 a week does anyone know where this is or is he talking shxt

Andy Martin in Coatbridge, United Kingdom said: I am an Electrician looking to get some experience working in the US I hear New Orleans is desperate for people

New Orleans is near the bottom of the pay range for electricians. If you don't mind starting as an apprentice you'll make more and get better training if you join the IBEW in Seattle. We still have lots of work and a first year IBEW apprentice in Seattle starts at more than most New Orleans journeymen make. The catch 22 is that the places that pay well usually don't accept your experience and training if it occurred in another country. Which is why you'd have to start as an apprentice.
