Wanna Work On The River? Illinois Marine Towing Is Hiring!
This morning we talked with Mike Blaske, General Manager for Illinois Marine Towing.
They're a boat and barge company based out of Lemont, Illinois. They're moving all boat commodities up and down the Illinois River from downtown Chicago, all the way down to Cairo, Illinois.
They currently employ over 200 people and if you're looking to work outdoors, this is your gig! It's a 24/7 business so they're constantly on the move.
Today and tomorrow they're hosting a hiring event in Dubuque inside the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium in the River's Edge Cafe! (Tomorrow it will start at 10am again (5/26).) If you've ever wondered what it would be like to work as a deckhand, now's your chance!
