Best Answer:
If you're looking for work in these areas, chances are you know someone who works underground. Ask them if they can help. That's how many people get a job. Once you have your black hat, it won't be as difficult. You can also try Lightening Contractors or any contracting companies. They're more likely to hire red hats off the street. I think there's one in Chapmanville.
Union mines may be striking soon, so they're probably holding off on hiring.
Massey will sometimes hire a red hat, especially if you have someone to vouch for you.
Best wishes!
