I would also like to learn a little about maintenance, specifically the organizational makeup of the maintenance department of a nuclear plant. I've seen titles in job postings, but those titles might not mean much if you don't know the department structure. For the crafts, is the breakdown as simple as mechanical or electrical? Or is it much more fragmented than that such as mechanical--fitters, welders, millwright, riggers etc and electrical--Instrumentation, controls, low voltage switchgear, protective relay specialist, etc. If the crafts are really fragmented to specialties, is there a lot of "turf protection" at play, i.e. "we can't do XXX until the XXX group unscrews this light bulb"?
STF--How is your search progressing? The postings that I'm referring to are still up, I believe, and were for: (I'm not a recruiter, I'm a job seeker. If listing these here is not good, let me know)
Superintendant Maintenance (Electrical and Mechanical), Fermi 2
Supervisor Maintenance (I&C), Fermi 2
Instrument Maintenance First Line Supervisor, Dresden..(this seems to have been up for a long time)
Nuclear Maintenance Supervisor (SA) - 12 Hour Shift , Salem
Nuclear Maintenance Supervisor (HC) - I&C , Salem
Thanks!
