Success Guide
Before you apply, make sure your CV clearly shows your Boilermaker trade certificate and the exact number of years you have worked as a qualified Boilermaker. The employer is looking for 3 to 5 years, so list your experience with specific equipment, conveyors or steam systems if you have it.
Because own transport and a valid driver's licence are required, mention these early in your CV or cover letter. If you have examples of fabrication work such as square to round or lobster back shapes, be ready to talk about them in an interview or show photos if you have them. This is a hands on plant role, so employers will want to hear about safety awareness, your ability to read drawings, and your willingness to do overtime and standby.
