Sorry you feel that way about our requirement for employment. FYI, over the years I have unfortunately unknowingly hired liars, thieves and criminals that call themselves experienced climbers. They will all tell you they can do backflips in trees and whatever else they think you want to hear to get the job but when they get to the first job site they can’t even tie a climbing knot. I recently had one drive off with my main service Truck with my bobcat in tow. Still looking for the bobcat. So what part of my requirements do you think is b’s ? I would think a legitimate qualified guy with nothing to hide would understand the reasons for it and easily pass the test. Are you one of those guy’s ? Thanks for the advice on including the pay scale. It’s open based on skill set and attitude.

Point taken and sure I could pass the test, I however climbed since 1983 and supervised men for 20 plus years. I suppose the test is based on more of beginning climbers. I at this time only climb for my own customers and or contract as I have been the employee for long term. I use a wraptor,and or hass presently and other gadgets normally not utilized by most employers. If I'm asked for a test I send pictures as I don't believe in wasting energy at this point in my career. I'm sorry to hear about the bobcat deal I can't stand thieves, anyway good-luck on your endeavor. Finding and keeping quality is the hardest part of the business and most of the issues come down to pay and expectations of both parties
Yea, the ad is trying to reach out to the guy's that are at the two plus years of experience skill level. Wasn't trying to insult the more experience and higher skilled climbers. Maybe I should clarify that in the advertisement. You couldn't be more right about finding and keeping quality help. Please pass along my ad to any young guy's you may know that might be closer to what I am looking for. Thank you for any help you can throw my way. Be well and thanks again.
