How a Full Service Electrical Contractor Can Help You
How can a full service electrical contractor company help you? What services can this company offer to you?
A full service electrical contractor company should, first of all, be fully licensed and should comply with all government requirements. Only then is it truly authorized to design, install, maintain and repair residential, commercial and industrial electrical systems and electrical projects. This includes upgrading and doing electric repairs on electrical panels, control panels, electrical boxes and electric motors, as well as cable fault locating and servicing of street lights, parking lot lighting, landscape lighting, commercial lights and security lighting. It provides all the necessary electrical parts & supplies for these projects. It also provides fully equipped bucket trucks that are ready for dispatch at any time for emergencies.
In hurricane-prone areas, a full service electrical contractor company offers hurricane preparation solutions such as lightning protection, surge protection through surge protectors and generator installation.
A full service electrical contractor company can also provide services on government electrical code consulting to prevent code violation. In Miami-Dade County in Florida, for example, the 40-Year Building Inspection Program obliges structural and electric inspection for safety every ten years for all buildings aged 40 years or more.
Electrical contractor companies in the United States are governed by the National Electrical Code (NEC) and are categorized according to specializations. There are voice/data/video (VDV) electrical contractors or integrated building systems (IBS) electrical contractors; inside electrical contractors; and line electrical contractors or outside electrical contractors.
The voice/data/video (VDV) electrical contractors or integrated building systems (IBS) electrical contractors work on low-voltage power installations. These cover, among others, energy efficient lighting from solar energy or wind energy; power monitoring; back-up or emergency electrical & lighting systems from auxiliary power generators; climate control systems including fire detectors, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors and exhaust fans; telecommunications systems including closed circuit television; fiber optics; wireless networks and security systems.
The inside electrical contractors manage all electrical work indoors and outdoors within the property boundary lines of their industrial, commercial or residential customer. These cover, among others, heat tracing, electric meters, circuit breakers, junction boxes, fuse boxes and fuses, switches, electric wires, indoor lighting, outdoor lighting, recessed lighting, outdoor fans, patio fans, ceiling fans and ceiling fan repair and water heaters. Inside electrical contractors also do home energy audits.
The line electrical contractors or outside electrical contractors deal with the most powerful and dangerous electrical work involving the infrastructure of high voltage power transmission from the power plant to substations, facilities and users. They manage electric generation systems such as that of hydroelectric energy as well as power plant equipment.
A full service electrical contractor company employs apprentice electricians, journeyman electricians, estimator electricians and project supervisor electricians. Apprentice electricians undergo a training program with hands on practice but only journeyman electricians who have state licenses are allowed to design, install, modify, repair and maintain electrical systems and projects. They are qualified and authorized to terminate cables and install and troubleshoot residential, commercial and industrial electrical wiring, both external and concealed wiring as well as underground wiring, based on technical drawings.
Estimator electricians and project supervisor electricians are journeyman electricians who have been promoted to the next levels. Estimator electricians are responsible for calculating the total costs and schedule of each project. Project supervisor electricians, on the other hand, oversee the whole of each project.
Whether you are a residential, commercial or industrial client, a full service electrical contractor company provides all possible electrical services you will ever need. To ensure complete electrical safety, never entrust your electrical needs to anyone less than a licensed full service electrical contractor.

Email or call HotJobs or the company to verify.
If you haven’t done business with HotJobs then its spam. If you have then look into it.
Well, checking on Nicholas Charles Company, they are a real recruitment firm, i.e. “head hunters”. I’m guessing you have your resume posted with one of those job hunting sites, and a recruiter at that company noticed it while scanning the site. So, it’s probably a real job offer, although, of course, that doesn’t you have a decent chance to get it.
While reading the job description, my first thought was this could be a legit mud logging or wireline job. Sure enough further down I saw this
“Positions are available with our service segments in:
Reservoir Evaluation and Development – Wireline, Seismic, Well Services, Drilling and Measurements, Well Completions and Productivity, and Integrated Project Management”
It strikes me as probably legit as it matches what I know of a lot of the oilfield service industry (I’m a chemical engineer myself but have only passing knowledge of upstream work). Be warned, those jobs require long/strange hours and lots of travel. The compensation can be good though.
Personally I’d pitch it, seeing it has been at least 2 years since you think you posted a resume. Besides it is a staffing Co. sending you the info. My guess would be they did a search on Hotjobs and your old resume came up.
I found the following and it does sound legit. You might want to do some more checking around before you do anything rash. Good luck.
It might be legitimate. It looks more like head hunters trying to find people to fill positions for clients. It’s the ol’; shot gun approach to finding recruits.
They are headhunters looking for field engineers for Schlumberger Well Services.
I worked for Schlumberger when I first graduated. It’s decent starting pay for an engineer fresh out of school. The work is not technically demanding, but the hours can be a killer, as you will be on-call 24/7 for 14 days at-a-time (then you get 4 days off (at least that’s how it was back in the early 80′s).
The training will be 6 weeks in a training facility (was in Oklahoma City in early 80′s), where most of your living expenses will be paid.
The side benefits are excellent.
I also benefitted from the training in radiation (radioactivity theory) in my next 2 jobs after Schlumberger.
If you have any other questions about them — e-mail me.
PS I know nothing of Nicholas Charles (other than they *have* to be a headhunter company). Schlumberger should pay their hiring fee. If they don’t, try contacting Schlumberger directly.

i got the same one several times recently after posting my resume on various online job sites.
first of all its a recuriter that gets a kickback for filling positions for other companies, they aren’t offering you a job, they want you to sign up so they can try to match you with a company,
Second, I think its fraud because they ask for way too much personal info, You shouldn’t give your social security number to an employer until they have given you a written offer which would only be after an in-person interview.
Be careful with these types of things.
One thing I found to be incredibly useful in my job search was sending hard copies of my resume to companies via snail mail. An email or internet subitted resume is easy to loose and ignore. When a secretary gets a hard copy of a resume it looks important so they pass it on to their supervisor, then they have a physical piece of paper that they have to look at before they can loose it in their inbox.
In my job search I got a response from every single company that I sent a hard copy of my resume to. Some companies sent me an application, others called to schedule interviews, I had a much better response rate than with online/email submissions.
My other piece of advice is to customize your cover letter for each job, make a standard genaric one but then edit it for each company. Do a little research online about the company (usually just on their website) and add enough personalized touch to make it look like you have had your eye on this company for a while.
Good Luck with the Job search and be carefull of anyone who asks for personal information up front, its probably a scam.
.
This is a fairly common form of phishing. If this agency is not within driving distance, ignore them. If they are, ask to visit the office before you give them any information.
There is a HUGE shortage of people in this industry right now, so chances are it is legitimate.
