hi
you have just missed the recruiting campaign, so it probably wont happen again for another 3/4 years, as a substantial panel of suitable candidates has been formed.

max age i think is 55, but i stand corrected on that.

selection process includes aptitude test x 2, interview, physical test that covers a wide range of suitability test to test your fitness and height climbing strength and confined space test.

salary starts at about 40k after recruit training this includes, weekend and night allowances, and increments every year after that for a certain period.

7 days and 7 night a month, comprising of a 3 day roster with a combination of 1 day and 2 nights or 2 days and 1 night
