[quote=Anonymous]"Mining is a somewhat nomadic career. Engineers go from place to place a lot. Once you're senior enough, you could probably settle down at company HQ or something but the early years would usually mean a lot of moving around." 30 odd years ago I attended a top 10 engineering school. Almost all of my friends, no matter which engineering major they ended up in, have had quite nomadic careers. Maybe some of that was because the top 10 school drew us from all over to begin with and were willing to move more than average, but I think it says more about what corporate jobs and corporate advancement requires. My question to actual mining engineers would be more about how long assignments last rather than about if you have to move every few years. Moving 15 times over a career is one thing, moving 60 odd times is another. [/quote]
