Well, with this company (Horizon Drilling) I went through orientation filling out forms signing papers and what not and then through the fitness/alcohol/drug test. Last thing I heard was through a text (Oct 21) that the coordinators have my paperwork and will contact me as soon as they have something.

I've handed in applications at Nabors Ensign and Akita. And they all said the same thing that the rigs right now are slow and will pick up Mid-November. I'm gonna try for Precision Beaver and Savanna next.
