Climber looking for work in California

[aussie climber]

Hi is any one out there looking for a climber in California? I'm a 26 year old from Australia looking at the possibility of obtaining a work visa here in the US. I have been in the tree industry since 1996, Climbing full time since 1998 and have been a sub-contractor since 1999.

I have a lot of experience in the tree industry working in residential, schools, government, emergency storm damage and line clearing. I do all my pruning spike less, I only use spikes on full take downs. I am very safety conscience and I take pride in my workmanship.

I can have my own gear(except my saws) shipped over once I gain a work visa if a company is willing to sponsor me.

Any pointers work be greatly appreciated on the best way to legally be able to stay and work here.

Thanks
Ryan

No Worries Ryan,

I left a message on the number ya posted. You are welcome to call anytime ya want.. I go to bed fairly early most of the time, but I keep the phone on most all day unless Im up a tree or something like that.

Like I said on the phone, we stay busy ALL year long up here with a few spring andf summer spikes..... Winter is the busiest time of year, we all get alot of emergency work... It is a good little spot to live and most of the people who come through here end up living
here for a long time... Anyhow, give me a call when you get a few minutes and I will go over more for you.. Take it easy man, Jeremy

Hey Ryan,
I didnt forget about ya man. I called a couple people today and they are looking into what it would take to sponsor someone for a work visa.
A couple people up here are hiring right now also. They are looking for full time climbers to do some fine pruning and some removals... It is better for you if ya can get your gear shipped over, but both companies have company equipment also..... I will try and give you a call tomorrow and give you there numbers... Have a good night man, and I will talk to ya tomorrow... Jeremy

Hey, I do want to get you up here for a week end at least to have a look around... I could introduce you to the locals alot easier that way too... Have a good night.
