advice needed

[Davi]

Hello all,

 

I’ve been recommended to come on here and ask for your help as I have been told there is a fountain of knowledge between all the members on this site. I am DESPERATLY trying to get a tree surgery job abroad!! I have been working within the industry for just over 3 years now since leaving the army (almost 2 grounding and 1 climbing); I have all the relevant NPTC qualifications as I attended the 10 week course at Merriswood in 2009. I have been told that Sweden is an exciting place to work but all of the vacancy adverts advertise for "experienced climbers". Although i am not (what my old boss would call ) a "tea boy" anymore i would not class myself as an experienced climber as yet. I have a high work ethic, good references, common sense and I am keen to listen and learn everything I possibly can to improve.

 

I’d be very grateful if anybody knew of a company that would consider someone like me or just point me in the right direction.

I believe xerxses is a good contact for you, and sweden is a great place, not just to work, a truly beautiful country. several members on here work there, I cant remember the threads off hand but Im sure a little search on here containing the words "work" and "sweden" may well turn up some usefull info and contacts.
