FAQ

Applying is easy! Just search jobs and apply now.

NO! There is no charge, at any time, for employees to apply or use AWG’s services.

There is no set time frame or guarantee for starting work through AWG. Receiving AWG job offers is dependent on three main factors:

• What positions AWG currently has available.
• What availability and interest an employee has compared to the jobs that are available.
• Any delay with processing your application (i.e., waiting on certificates, references, testing, etc.).

AWG strives to offer applicants positions as soon as possible, sometimes even at the end of their interview! However, for the reasons stated above, it may take a few days, a few weeks or even longer to receive an offer. Being open to trying positions is key if you are very eager to get to work.

Checking in with AWG lets us know an employee’s motivation level and keeps them fresh in our minds when a new position becomes available.

• For production and labor positions: call-in as available at least every other day during office hours.
• For administrative and skilled trades positions: call-in available at least once a week during office hours.

However, we encourage you to check in as often as you like; our recruiters greatly enjoy speaking to our employees and making job connections as quickly as possible!

A recruiter will make the initial job offer over the phone, so please ensure AWG has your most up-to-date contact information and that you have a voicemail box set up.

Many of our positions are first come, first serve, and delays in responding or accepting an offer may mean that it is accepted by another candidate.

We do not want people to accept positions they are not interested in. We do, however, want feedback as to WHY you have declined the offer. This allows AWG to understand what a better fit for you would be so the next position we offer can be one you want to accept.

Yes! A minimum of 2 working days’ notice is required to be eligible for rehire.

AWG started the ‘AWG Pay It Forward Program’ in 2018 to help individuals further themselves. It’s a program set up to give back! Contributions are 100% voluntary & are not taken until you begin employment. If an employee needs boots to get to work or needs prescription safety glasses to keep their job … we’ve got them covered! You can change your contribution amount at any point, just ask an AWG team member! Thank you for helping us help others 😊
