Excavator Needs Help
Hey guys I need some advice. I have ten years experience running excavators,bachoes,front end loaders. I am enrolling in ATS Construction school to get my crane certification in New Hampshire. I am trying to find work after shutting down my own business. Do you think this will help me land a job in the crane industry? Thanks for any feedback.

Re: Excavator Needs Help
Jack, I don't know if you're willing to travel, but i've seen several ads in the N.C./S.C. area from people looking for crane operaters & mechanics.

Re: Excavator Needs HelpQuote:
I would simply assume that having the crane certification could be beneficial to landing a position as a crane operator. The bigger issue would be is there any demand for crane operators? One of the local crane companies here is extremely slow. Best of luck.

Re: Excavator Needs Help
Welcome to the site Jack. What kind of work did you do when you had your own business?? Crane operators do make good money, but work is slow now. Good luck and let us know how you make out.
