What gets you hired

When this trade is needed
Mechanical fit-out through load bank testing, then straight into the service contract once the hall is handed over.
Why Columbus specifically
Central Ohio turned into a hyperscale corridor on the back of New Albany, and the growth is recent enough that the local trade base has not caught up with it. Most specialist work still arrives from out of state.
The market where a travelling specialist has the least local competition, and where per diem is most often part of the package rather than a negotiation.
