One of the most common challenges about working in environmental drilling is that our jobs require frequent travel. It’s a tough decision to make as a new hire, knowing you might be away from home for days, weeks or even months at a time.
So how do we encourage job seekers to take on these jobs? Despite the downsides, frequent travel presents unique opportunities that many candidates won’t find working locally. There are tradeoffs, but also ways that drillers can leverage their time away from home.
