I offered my services as a highly skilled administrator and project manager to Hays Recruitment (Natural Resources and Mining) in WA and was told there was no point in applying for jobs unless I had specific experience working in a mining site. I’m a bit confused…. Here I am with 10 years of admin experience behind me, willing to work in a remote community, offering my services to an industry that’s meant to be desperate and they say you have to have direct and specific mining experience. Does anyone know how I can get a job in a mine? My email is rachbyrnes@hotmail.com Thanks!! Hi folks, I recently read and article on the skills shortage in the mining industry.

We are in the process of moving into our new 21,000 sq Ft repair facility. We are preparing for the best at OTR Tire. Our inventory is very abundant with sizes of a 25 inch rim to a 63 inch rim. We at OTR recognize the confidence in a repaired tire to run as it was never repaired. There are alot of small repair shops that are soley based on making money. We have installed the only three tier Quality Control process in the industry. Our tires and there repairs are highly documented. Complete with photos of every repair. We have invested heavly in our research and development. Section repair training in Germany (REMA TIP TOP). Also all of our section repair techs must be certified through Patch Rubber Co. Our main focus is to the end user, ensuring them they are dealing with a Co. who has put the time and efforts into making a safer end product. We have gained infinite knowledge from industry leaders. And we will continue to do so in the future. Sorry to say our company couldnt make this years AIMEX expo? We are in the process of moving into our new 21,000 sq Ft repair facility.

The expo was very good with lots of quality potential customers coming through. We will only know if it was truly profitable in a couple of months, but after the first 2hrs of the Expo we believed we had enough quality leads to cover our costs. And the leads kept coming after that. I believe we were successful because we were solution focused (dust suppression solution) rather than product focused (sprinklers and fittings). All of our leads were people responsible for a problem which we were able to briefly discuss and give them confidence we had a solution. So I think we have the "value proposition covered" - we can solve your dust problem. I think that for companies that went to the expo without that worked out will not have many leads and now will be too late for them. Regards Nicholas Calvin,
