A lot of guys are asking about the test here is what I know.  It is a 6 inch pipe test your choice of welding it flat horizontal or on a 45.  Test is in a shop 5p root and hot pass with a 7018 fill and cap.  You use their equipment it is not a rig welder job using your own rig unfortunaterly.  It is visual inspect only no bend and no xray.  But visual must be clean no trash etc.  The lady called me again this morning and is desperate to find some workers.  She said guys do not have to come to longview she will meet them at the job site in lone star and do paperwork and test there.  She still has 20 something openings and tons of work with voluntary overtime available at time and a half pay.  Everything over 40 is overtime...perm hire is after 90 days and benefits available at that time.  Hope that clarifies a bit!!

where in east texas is this job located ?

It is in Lone Star but today they said they don't hv enough guys so they are wanting everyone to work 12-16 hr days on seven for the next month straight.  Money adds up but it is killer on the guys.  Also they are hiring direct now not just through the temp service gonna try to get the number up here but the supervisor is Brett Hart and the company is Mill Services.  Better direct hire than with the temp and I think a little more money too.
