Thanks for posting this video, it gives a great idea of what the area and the boom is actually like from people who have experienced it firsthand. Thanks again!
Did the foot work before leaving for the Bakken. Got a nice place for a week. Got a job in 2 days moved into man camp for one night then moved into brand new apt.
Going to Dickinson? Bring a lot of money... A LOT OF MONEY! IF you can find a rental, you'll pay thru the nose for it. Great food stores but, expensive. Forget about a motel room... "NO VACANCY" signs at everyone of them. Good luck.
so good to see Marathon oil company getting to have a part in this production! When i was a teen the Marathon Station on Highway 67 was my first experience of fine dining. It was our everywhere and the place My hubby came to meet me and my dad let me drive his 58 Ford Galaxy Red and white , trimmed out in crome .. Wow Thanks Marathon for all my memories.
@mylesc99 Depends on what you want to do. If you want to be a roustabout they're willing to hire you. If you want to be a Field Operator, than you would typically need a CDL. Like the advertisement says, if you aren't employed you're unemployable. I was like you and now I'm a Field engineer for Baker Hughes.

@thesissyspace103: That's great! We've been able to help people find housing in a time crunch as well. Thanks for sharing!

lol... easiest way to get rid of someone you don't want around is to tell them there' s no work... maybe you're one of the "unemployable".

I was there Friday, January 6th, 2012 and they weren't hiring for entry level jobs in the oil field in Dickinson or Williston.
