Many seek jobs in the offshore industry
The phone rings up to ten times a day at Danish Offshore Energy in Esbjerg; calls by jobseeking Danes or people who already have jobs. They want employment in the offshore industry. This shows a growing interest in the industry, says chairman of the center, Anders Eldrup.
"I think it's because there has been much focus on us and the industry, also on shortage of skills. We assess each case, to see how we can help them along", says Anders Eldrup.
The center does not directly employ the people who call, but they do try to help them along. Either they will be put in direct contact with one of the 260 offshore companies or provide information on relevant courses and training.
