Hello my name is Darrell and I am from Ocala,Florida.
I am a certified welder with many certificates in the industry.
I will be getting my TWIC card in 4 more weeks.
And other certs include NCCER,OSHA,MORE.

I have been looking for jobs in Houston,Tx for a year now.
It seems like Houston has more jobs and welder jobs than all of the whole state of Florida.

That is why my next move will be Houston (soon).

There are some of the largest construction companies around station in Houston.

Well it may take after Christmas but I will become a Texas transplant.

If anyone has a comment or suggestion on jobs or areas or anything else that may be a help to me just write a line or two.

Thanks

Darrell

check out the Texas Workforce Commission web site
you can job search there
I think the law in TX says that if a company is working on project that is paid for in any way with tax money all jobs have to be advertised with the Workforce Commission--
you can search by area and skill
and that site has links to other sites to job search

I look on Indeed and many other job bank sites.

There is more work in HOUSTON than there is in the entire state of FLORIDA.

I have been here since 1981 and I have loved it all these years but...There is no work here for a working person.

My homework tells me that Houston is where to go for work.
