Shamrock Environmental and Hurricane Katrina

After our story on the 2005 Job Expo ran Thursday, I got calls from a few people who are interested in applying to head to the Gulf with Shamrock Environmental Corp. As of Wednesday, the local company was looking for about 50 people willing to head south for an indeterminate amount of time to clean up what Katrina left behind.

In case you're interested in applying, e-mail your resume to resume@thehrgroupinc.net and make sure to write "clean-up" in the subject line of the message. The HR Group is managing recruitment for Shamrock.

Here are answers to the most common questions people have been asking me:

* Shamrock doesn't require applicants to have the 40-hour safety training under their belts, but the company certainly prefers to hire people who already have been trained. If you're hired and have not been trained, the company will put you through the OSHA training.

* You must pass a physical and a drug screening.

* It could take three or more weeks to get you down to the coast, and the assignment could last anywhere from a few weeks to a year or more. During that time, you could work between 60 and 100 hours a week. Hourly pay is $12 to $15, there is overtime and lodging is provided. Workers also will receive a food stipend.
