Position available in Nashville.

The Luke · May 19, 2016

Anybody in Nashville looking for a job? Decent money, plenty of room to move up, good benefits, etc. it's a field engineering job as a contractor for Att and Google fiber. I could train a monkey how to do this as long as you have some common sense.

Common sense...hard to come by nowadays.
Good luck!

Re:

How much travel are we talking?

The Luke · May 19, 2016

Day trips only. No over night. Metro area. Or "outside of Nashville". Clarksville, tullahoma, ect.

Just let two temps go because they wouldn't even try. One was retiring army in three months. I couldn't get him off his ass to do anything at all. He sat around and stared at his phone all day.

Our company has the att mini master contract for two more years. So we have more work then we know what to do with right now.

SONOF................... If we hadn't just bought a new house, I'd be all over that. I was looking at moving to Nashville last year and none of the jobs I interviewed for panned out. Does the job require being outside doing **** or sitting behind a desk? I got the desk job and would love to do something else.

The Luke · May 19, 2016

I'd say 70% outside. 30% behind a desk. Best part is the cool spots you get to go to. My first fiber placement job was the Nashville zoo. I have been in most record studios in Nash, banks, High rises, and even the governors house. I'm engineering 12k feet of fiber to Arrington vineyard tomorrow.

smbroady82 · May 19, 2016

They are in the process of bringing fiber to Huntsville now and there are a lot of big changes coming up where we work (Utility Contractor)

The Luke · May 19, 2016

Yea. Att is doing mostly commercial stuff now and new neighborhoods. Google on the other hand is hitting every single pole in metro. I have a little over 80k poles to do. Will take me years. I've done about 400 since February. We have one other guy doing them with me. But he does about 1/3 the amount I do and talks about quitting daily

AT&T is just grazing the surface in Nashville now. I'd plan for it to pick up heavily over the next few years.

You're telling me. We have fiber down almost every single street in mid Tn. It's only a matter of time before they hit the go button on residential.

kmcminn · May 19, 2016

What size fiber yall deal with? I mess with 62.5 and 200 pretty regular.

paradisepwoffrd · May 20, 2016

Re:

This is 99% singlemode I would say. 8um core, 250 OD.

The Luke · May 20, 2016

Anywhere from 12 fiber drop and up. I placed some 900 the other day.

The Luke · Aug 2, 2016

Had a few people leave. Couldn't handle the heat. Spots are still available.

Wish I lived in Nashville! Not sure if the wife could work remote or not (her company is only in Memphis)

DirtMonkey · Aug 2, 2016

Sounds like a good gig. Good luck. It amazes me how lazy some people are (especially the younger ones out there now)

The Luke · Aug 2, 2016

Ain't that the truth. You'd be amazed how well everyone interviews and then suck at their job.

It's like that everywhere. I've been looking for a good auto glass tech for 2 years and get these guys that talk a good talk and look good on paper that I'll hire and can't do half what they say they can.
