From all the crafts that have influenced the present-day form of industry, welding is probably the one that still preserves all its past importance, particularly since it is now extended to almost all sectors of activity. We could understand the high demand for specialized people to occupy welding jobs in a variety of domains; such careers can be shaped from school times by choosing the training programs offered by educational institutions. Or, it is not uncommon for companies to send people from their stuff to improve their skills by learning new welding processes. This allows people not just to have access to better paid welding jobs but also to develop solid careers.
Presently, Internet sites provide great opportunities to find welding job announcements that suit one’s expectations. What you should know from the very beginning is the fact that for most well-paid welding jobs you will need some sort of certification that would attest to your skills. Some companies recruit welders from training seminars and programs, some others expect experience in the field and ask for evaluations before accepting a job request. Whichever be the case, the selection criteria is based on skill evaluation first and foremost.
It is not uncommon to switch welding jobs and move to something more profitable; one work place doesn’t offer everything and there may be lots of new things to learn in the business that would propel the welder to a more profitable position. Most welding jobs are offered by the construction industries that usually absorb the majority of the skilled welders. The demands of the market depend on several factors; first of all, the number of welding jobs results from the increased stress on productivity and the investment in automation, which is absolutely necessary for competitiveness.
Furthermore, the tendency to create more welding jobs in sectors that benefit from the advancement of technologies and the broader application of metal joining are obvious even to the inexperienced eye. No doubt that scientific progress leads to the expansion of employment facilities creating more welding jobs in sectors that have come to depend on new material joining. There are new processes that have made their way in the welding field: ultrasonic pulses, the use of modern alloys and plastics in associations, electron beams and laser equipment, and all these require the presence of contribution of people who have the skills to use them.

Help answer the question about welding jobs
What kind of welding jobs does the Navy offer?I'm a welding student in college right now and I'm looking at the US Navy as an option. I'm told by many that the US Navy has done significant research in welding technology with regards to the nuclear sector. What jobs are out there, both in potions as an enlisted man and an officer. Truthfully, on the Navy website I can not find any welding careers.

It won't be easy. But, if the school where you take the welding classes is legitimate, they will have a program to help you find a job. If they don't have such a program, don't take classes there.
As someone who was active duty for 8 yrs. and 2 reserves, welding itself is not a rate but used in rates such as hull techs, launch and recovery technician and others. Usually an individual is picked to go to the navy welding class for 2-3 weeks based on the commands needs. If you get a four year degree you could get into the officer program. As far as just having college credits may give you a higher pay rate but not necessarily a job as a welder.
Where are these jobs. union?
Check out some machine tool and mechanic shops to see if they have an opening.
Advertise in the local news paper, place notes on bulletin boards, word of mouth, set up a shop with a sign out front, a sign on the side of your truck. These are good places to start. It all takes time to build.
Good luck. Look at this.

One of the highest paid of all jobs in this country are those who weld underwater! Temps underwater are always on the coldish side – and you will always be wet from the water and not sweat. You will have to really master both welding and scuba diving to survive, and even if you are the best of the best in the field there is danger involved in this career (it is the reason for the high pay, however).
Hand welders are in demand. They work in factories, construction sites, ship yards etc. The difficulty is doing the job correctly and getting the training for it. If bad welds show up or are missed the welder is quickly dismissed.
Weld operators is the least technical of the welders. They place parts in fixtures which clamp other parts together. A mig robot will automatically quickly weld the parts and when done the operator will quickly remove and inspect the part. If the part is good the part will be packed for shipment. If bad welds are found the operator will mark the bad weld and place it on a rack where a hand welder will later reweld the bad spots.
At one time this operator job was the entry level job for welding. However with the decline in the automotive market, there are fewer openings. Plus the demands on the operators have increased including quotas and the quality demands to not miss bad welds.
