When you are looking to get into the mining industry, navigating the recruitment process with a criminal record can be a bit tricky. If you have past charges for things like violence or drugs, it is important to understand how mining companies view these applications. To be completely transparent, charges involving domestic violence or general violence make finding a job really tough. This is especially true for specific mining jobs like a driller offsider, where roles require working in very remote areas, making safety and trust top priorities for employers. How recent your record is also plays a massive part. If your charges happened within the past few years, companies may view it as an immediate red flag. However, it does not always mean you should give up on your mining career goals. It might just take a little bit longer, and you will need to keep applying and putting your resume out there to find the right opportunity.
