Hello All,

Just curious if this job has peaked anybody's interest. If so, could you reply or if not, is there any feedback you could give to help us out in our hiring search?
I'm thinking there aren't too many Southern California members that look at this site. Am I wrong? If so, if you're looking for work, is there anything that we could do better to peak your interest?

Just wondering.

THanks!

Not looking for a job in Cali but I thought I'd let you know that the link you provided will not load. Might be why you aren't hearing much.

There are several here from South California.
Anyone with the qualifications and capable of the responsibilities you require is probably already very well established in the area they are in and are already making a premium wage or are working for themselves. It will require a bigger premium to lure them in.
There just are not that many people out there with the abilities and qualifications you seek.
You don't offer relocation. SoCal is a big place. Who wants to commute even from 40 or 50 miles in that traffic. Imo that is not a place that most tree guys would want to commute to.

Sounds kinda Goofy to me.

We've all worked for Micky Mouse operations. Its usually the boss that's goofy.

I'm sorry, Wertreelovers. It really was hard to resist.

Please tell us if there are any type of accomodations as with, for instance, your international employees. As Joe says, commute can take the magic out of working at the Magic Kingdom. With an offer of living quarters I believe you could attract some good talent. We have a fair number of Arboristsite members from the southern California region.

Sorry about the link. It changed a bit from a few weeks ago. They now have only a temp Full Time position open that could lead to permanent They also still have the 2 management spots open.

Here's the new link: https://disney.recruitmax.com//main...turnToSearch=1&szWordsToHighlight=tree worker

Also, thanks to all for the feedback and humor. I can understand the commute issue. I myself don't look forward to it. The positions are mainly 3rd shift though, so you miss the traffic at least.

I sure wish they had housing. I would love to live inside Tarzan's Tree House or the Castle or something. It would probably be pretty noisy though with the Fireworks every night.
