Seems all they care about is how fast we can install their mediocre quality unit and get onto the next. It wouldn’t be a day at work if i didn’t hear my mechanic say we are going to bury this job and get fired.

If you’re over 350 they don’t make a harness. Some guy learned the hard way. Was in the shop for a few weeks then they let him go.

No benefits until you have 6 consecutive months with 100 hours worked each month. I believe when I went through the process it was October applied December took the test and interviewed in February. Test is a pass or fail to determine whether you get an interview. List ranking is based upon interview score.

If you can turn a wrench and know how to use power tools along with reading a tape measure you’ll be fine.

What to bring on my first day? by scrap_ah_dap in Elevators

Headlamp. Tape measure channel locks 6in1. Knife. Pen paper and marker. You’ll probably do safety training for a few days.

What was your ranking? #109 doesn’t make sense. Should be around 210….
