For everyone that works in waste water, water purification or any municipal organization, how do you guys go about recruiting new techs? We want to start getting a few new guys (so hopefully a few stick around). Most people in our shop are either family of someone or people who know someone. We can get electricians out of the local union but techs we're lost. i was thinking of going to some local colleges that teach instrumentation, but how do i convince a 20yr old to pass up $30-40+/hr. Im in south Louisiana so we're competing with chemical plants & refineries. thanks for any advice!
