Working Overseas
Hello Mike;
I am currently working in Iraq as an Electrical Inspector. My suggestion is for you to research KBR.com in the LOGCAP section, DAAR Engineering, The Stanley Group, SBH (Stanley, Baker, Hill). I was personally picked up by DAAR Engineering (they contacted me via viewing my resume on Monster Jobs). Some other electrical providers out here are Englett and Stubbs, IEP, and Fleur. I hope I've been helpful to your goals.

overseas work
The company I work for did a basic back ground check, but other than that I just had to secure my passport and get all the necessary inoculations for working here.

Inglett & Stubbs is based out of Atlanta. I have alot of friends that work for them over in Afghanistan. The biggest complaint I've heard out of them is it's like being in prison. Once you get there there is no leaving the base. It's hard work also.
As far as the company goes I worked for them for 7 1/2 years and didn't have any complaints. They have the people and resources to do just about anything. I think you'll like the people if you decide to go there.
