Hello. I really don't know who else to ask, so after some google-fu I came across this forum. I realize that this forum is for people who work in the industry, but I'm at a bad place in my life and just looking for some advice. So I'm sorry if this thread goes against the grain.
As the title says, I'm a infantry USMC vet who went through the interview and application process in late 2013 with IUEC Local 2. I received an interview score of 94.544 which ranked me in the mid 80's. This is a career that I think I would be extremely proud to hang my hat on; looking through some old threads a lot of people make it seem like there isn't a sure thing in this business, but that's a risk I'm willing to take.
I have a couple questions if you don't mind:
1) Does anyone have a general idea how many men IUEC Local 2 plans on calling in before the 2 year window is up?
2) Would trying to get my foot in a different local and then going through the interview process again in Chicago when they test again help? (At this point in my life I'm ok with re-locating)
3) Is there a way to search which Locals are accepting applications?
Thank you very much for any advice you can give me.
