....As a contractor, all they really have to do is review procedures, verify OJTs (Nantel - 14-16 I believe),.....
Close,...
NEI 1 thru 14 is a typical expectation, the contract RP can be effective with only a partial list of verified NEI modules, it's really up to the client, I am not aware of any better pay for being current on all 14 modules, although not being current on all 14 may result in rejection of the candidate.
RMS is module 15 IIRC,...
If the candidate is current on items such as the NUF, NEI 1 thru 14 (and any vendor supplied certificates required for the position to which they have been posted),
then any candidate with the expectation they should be provided "full boat" qualifications (ala TMI circa 1988) will be disappointed. The expectation is that a "3.1 Senior > 7 years" (such as the original poster) should be able to walk on to a commercial site such as Port St. Lucie with his/her NEI and NUF current. If they are not current it is expected that same candidate should be able to pass the NUF without study, review applicable procedures (plus pass a procedure comprehension test), and accomplish the OJT's for the NEI 1 through 14 within a 40 hour week.
3.1 Seniors with >7 years should not need more than that to be effective as staff augmentation or supplemental employees. That is what the resume is supposed to validate, the resume validates the candidate is already an expert at their craft, an expert does not require a four to six week training program to be fully competent,...
Juniors do,...that's why they are paid less,...
(edit,..if-then statements lack a bit of oomph when you infer but do not include the "then")
