What is your priority when looking for a new mining job?

It is that time of the year when you might be starting to consider a career change. If you vote now in our annual survey, you can return at the end of the month and compare your motivations with the results of a large sample of mining industry workers.

What takes priority when you’re searching for your next mining job opportunity?
Please select the major reason you’re looking for your next job opportunity, or, if you are not looking right now, what was the reason you made your last mining job change?

Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments. Check back in next month for the results & our take on your answers!
