I would love to try it as a contractor.
The one big problem with south africa is when you go in the ocean half the time you get eaten by a white shark.
I wonder if that is what happened to the 10 tech postions???????
Loss of techs by attrition

...i spoke with bernard jongen, the recruiter for this job and a permanent employee of deros international, at length...
...the client, askom - owner of koeberg, has requested 10 technicians to commit to one year starting in early january...
... 6 months are outage (one spring, one fall, each 3 months long)...
...he is aware that the average american technician earns $25 per hour and receives $100 per day per diem...
...he is aware of overtime...
...his intention is to arrange the most favorable pay structure based on those numbers...
...that may include the creation of a company that would allow u.s. tax free and payment in american currency...
...he is currently investigating his options as well as clarifying client information (hours, travel, etc.)...
...he will be making offers in mid december if all goes well...
Butthead:
Has anyone heard anything from these guys lately?

Good luck to any one else who is on the list.
