YES MY COMMENT IS, WHY IS IT THAT I CAN’T CLICK ON YOUR APPLICATION PROCESS.
I have applied to about 10 different postings that say they are in need of people immediately and haven’t heard back from one of them! The only thing I get back is an auto response. Am I doing something wrong here??
I signed up at oilrigindustry.com and basically let them find a job for me. It was extremely easy and totally worth it.
sean is a scammer dude we are americans trying to save our homes stop please!
i have a son that have been looking for a job since he got of prison and every place he goes to will not hire him due to a felony charge he is really trying to change his life but no one will give him that second chance how can he get employment with the oil spill.
Hi… I would like to ask, if its possible to get this job although I am from Europe?
I would like to becmoe employed doing anything that you have avalible. I am a fifteen year Union Iron Worker of Local 433 out of L.A.. I have a lot of experiance in hard labor, and in a very fast leaner. Please hire me.
There was five unemployed people who have put in applications, an we have familys, bills, an we have heard nothing about it an it has been over a month.
I have been looking for a week. I was told I was hired for a foreman position. I passed the drug screen and physical , and even the interview; however, there is a lot of Christopher Barnes’s out there apparently, and they are on my background check somehow. I’m not a criminal. I’ve never even been arrested, and I can’t get a job because of someone else with me name? I’m even HAZWOPER certified. Any help out there? I’m In Florida north of Destin beach, which is in between Panama City beach and Pensacola, Florida. CNPbarnes@gmail.com. I’ve supervised in upwards of 65 people.
I have been trying to get employment for the longest and I,m wondering why I have not gotten a response. Their is so many advertisements showing but it seems like no one is answering them. Does BP really need help cleaning up the oil spill. I have two good arms,legs eyes, ears, and alot of free time.
Have anyone been hired if so when

I have worked for the oil spill clean-up for several different firms. This is a very transient job and you MUST be a resident of the county in which you work. The jobs are limited and are rotated through various firms by the GC. All Florida county driven. I have worked as many as 80 hours in a week and as few as 12. I currently am not working, but have been called to be avail next wed-sun. for 48 hours work. You have one chance to answer the phone and then they call the next person on the waiting list. Best bet is to go through the local unemployment office, as they control most of the jobs. or Gov. Crist also has a website. BTW, I have worked with many convicted felons.
If there’s a morbid silver lining to this fiasco, at least a few jobs were created (not that it makes up for those that were lost).
