ATS Heavy Equipment Operator Training Schools has a website dedicated to job listings. Jobs listed include the complete range of heavy equipment operations, truck driving and crane operations. Graduates from our training schools can freely access this website to see the latest job vacancies. If you’re an employer looking for skilled workers in these areas, you too can access the website to list any job vacancies.

Our graduates can also submit their resumes, so prospective employers can review them prior to listing a job vacancy. Our graduates are well trained and ready for entry level employment. You will also find graduates who have developed their skills in the workplace and who are now ready for more challenges – you certainly can’t classify them as novices now.

If you are looking for quality workers, our interactive website makes that search so much easier. As an employer, you can search our list of graduates based on experience and either city, state or zip code. Listing a vacancy is free, however, you will need to fax us details of your job listing – we will then contact you with your login and password.

Job seekers can search the site for any job vacancies, or search our employer database for potential employers. Job seekers can also search for employers in a particular city, state or zip code. If you are looking for work, or looking for workers, our interactive job site makes is easy for both job seekers and employers. It is free for both groups to access and is provided as a service by our career services department. If you want more information, feel free to contact us toll free on 1.800.383.7364.

When looking at heavy equipment job listings, it’s important to read the requirements that an employer has included. They are there for a reason – the employer is looking for someone with those skills, attributes, or experience. When reviewing job listings, pay particular attention to the type of heavy equipment and the type of work being done. Job listings this week are light on, although the last month has been quite busy. The job vacancies below are a good example of the types of jobs we receive and the skills, attributes, and experience that an employer is looking for.

Heavy equipment operator job listings will go through an unsettled period in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. For some construction businesses, everything has come to a standstill as they try to assess the damage done to work in progress. Hundreds, if not thousands, of heavy equipment operators, truck drivers, and crane operators are going to be needed to help with clean-up efforts, repairs, and with the demolition and rebuilding of buildings badly damaged. There are a lot of roads that are going to need work on as well.

Right now, heavy equipment job listings are fairly light, although that follows a rather heavy list of job opportunities last listed last weekend. There is plenty going on in the south and west in states that were not affected by Hurricane Sandy, however, there will be operators from these areas who will be called in to help with the cleanup. Opportunities listed over the last two weeks include:

In a period in which the economy is sluggish, jobs can be hard to find. The construction industry is generally the first to defy this trend, and over the past two years, it has led the way when it comes to growth. Heavy equipment operators, truck drivers, and crane operators are all in demand, however, that demand is ever-changing and often moves from state to state. There is a reason for this.

As projects come to an end, operators and drivers start to drift to new locations – their work there is done. One project finishes, another starts, however, it’s often hundreds of miles away, perhaps even in a new state. This draws in operators and drivers chasing the money that is often on offer for big projects. This leaves shortages at a local level, and those shortages mean there are plenty of job opportunities for others. The following jobs have been listed over the last two weeks – check with our jobs website for more information on these or any new jobs.

Finding your first job after completing training can be difficult. We often list job vacancies here on Saturdays for heavy equipment operators, crane operators, and truck drivers. These job listings are not just for current students or recent graduates either. Some operators and drivers quickly develop reputations for being good at their job – employers often seek them out hoping to recruit them.

We list a lot of jobs through our dedicated job site, and at times we host employers at our training school. These are generally larger employers who have an ongoing need for new operators or drivers. This week we feature truck driving jobs, in particular two large employers who are visiting us as part of a recruitment drive.

The hardest part of any new career is getting your leg in the door. Once in, the rest is pretty much plain sailing, especially if you’re pretty good at what you do. Heavy equipment careers are no different – find an employer willing to take you on as a raw novice, and the door opens to prove your worth. If you’re well trained, and you perform well, you’ll always find employment.

ATS Heavy Equipment Operator Training Schools are well aware of the difficulties graduates face in finding employers willing to take a chance on new recruits. Fortunately, we have a terrific reputation amongst employers for our quality training methods, curriculum and delivery. More importantly, our graduates are well regarded from day one, simply because they have our training school listed on their resumes.

Since we are well respected, we have developed a huge database of potential employers from all around the nation. We have also developed a well trained career services department. It is their role to work with students to develop quality resumes and to fine tune their job search skills. This includes approaching potential employers and how best to present themselves and perform during job interviews. We also work with students to find potential employers, and to approach those employers with a view to getting that ‘leg in the door’.

ATS also has a dedicated job site where employers can place and job vacancies. Some of these vacancies are also published on this site each Saturday. With our job site and career services department, heavy equipment operator students (and truck driver training/crane operator training) receive all the assistance possible to get that all-important first job. What we don’t do is deliver training then wave goodbye when completed – we continue to help you for as long as you need that help, and that’s generally not all that long.

As winter approaches many construction jobs start to wind up, especially those in areas that are subject to heavy snowfalls. However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t work available. In fact, states such as Florida often increase their construction activity in winter since that is their ‘dry’ season. There’s no mystery why many people migrate to Florida during winter – the weather’s great and life is very comfortable.

If you are looking for employment in the heavy equipment operation field, and you don’t mind spending a winter in warmer climates, then keep your eyes open for opportunities in some of the southern states where snow is not a problem, and the weather, in general, is kind to construction. This week’s job opportunities include:

Backhoe Operators
Little Rock, AR
An employer is looking for backhoe operators

Excavator Operators
Little Rock, AR
Experienced Cat 345 operators required

Heavy Equipment Operators
Riverton, WY
An employer is looking for heavy equipment operators

Heavy Equipment Operator
Englewood, CO

For more information on these jobs, visit our dedicated jobs site. You’ll find new job vacancies being listed on a regular basis for heavy equipment operators, truck drivers, and crane operators. If you’re interested in a career as a heavy equipment operator, truck driver, or crane operator, then visit our training site – you’ll find all the latest information on our training programs, and winter is the perfect time to train for a new career.

Are there jobs in the trucking and construction industry? There certainly are. We are constantly receiving job vacancies from employers (you can view them all on our job site), and often the vacancies are for multiple positions. It’s important to read each job vacancy and to keep a positive attitude. We often hear the comment like, “Sure there’s a job available right where I want to work, however, I am new to the industry so they won’t select me.” That’s the wrong attitude. They may well select you if you are suited to their needs, and if they are recruiting for several vacancies, then you’ll have an even better chance of success. It’s like the old lottery issue – you won’t have a chance of winning if you don’t buy a ticket – in this case, you certainly won’t get the job if you don’t submit an application. The jobs that have recently come into our offices include:

Truck Driver Job Vacancies
