Hey there.
Just posting tonight about something that would be a good idea for anyone in the welding field. Join the American Welding Society. The benefits for joining are fantastic. I’ve been a member now for about a year, and have enjoyed the benefits greatly. Most enjoyable has been the subscription to the Welding Journal published by the AWS. It’s a must have for anyone trying to keep up with advancements in the industry and new product lines.
They also serve as a job search resource for those in the market. You have the ability to post a resume online with them and they allow companies to search you out and contact you directly.
Most importantly, the discounts offered through membership are amazing.
Health insurance, life insurance, publications, clothing, welding supplies, and equipment are just some of the things that an AWS membership gives you discounts to. As well as providing a nice resume point to prospective employers.
Visit the AWS website for more info on membership.
