This organization has 3 basic concepts for success. 1. Be apart of the "Good 'ol boys club" 2. Be a minority or female. 3. Be a Democrat If you can't follow suit then they will starve you out!

If you are looking for a solid career with amazing benefits the look no further. Been a member for several years and local 290 provides an amazing wage as well as a feeling of brotherhood. So if you truly want to see what a great career is then come on by. This place continues to show me how truly lucky and amazing a career can be.

I was told by local 290 that i have a reimbursement check. How do I find out how much?

Deborah Carrico | Aug 18, 2018
Nicholas Dickey | Aug 18, 2018

Reimbursement check? I guess if you have done something for local 290 and have a question about a reimbursement check then id call the front office. They can get the ball rolling for you. They may know where it is or be able to mail it to you.

Im wondering if I am studying whats needed, there is a time slot for 4 hours to accomplish all tests and I just feel like I might be missing something... Does anyone know what the 4 hour time slot is for?

brettney downing | Aug 18, 2018
Nicholas Dickey | Aug 18, 2018

It's probably the aptitude test before the interview. Most of the time windows like that are set up to keep people from spending ten hours working on a test. Keep studying and if you have any questions call the training center.

How long is the apprenticeship?
