As a broke student, I've considered working in Fort McMurray or construction during the summer.. how do I do that exactly? I've never worked in construction but I hear the money is great. I know I can handle the work load and the idea of working 2 weeks on and 1 week off up North isn't too bad. Noone that I know has done this though, so how does one go about getting a job in the field and what can I expect? Also, this would most definitely be in the summer.
