Turn Your Mechanical Ability Into a Skilled Career

Are you mechanically inclined, dependable, and interested in learning a hands-on trade? Home Appliance is hiring an Appliance Installation Apprentice to join our growing installation team.

No appliance installation experience is required. We are looking for someone who enjoys working with their hands, solving problems, helping customers, and learning new skills.

You’ll begin with approximately four to six weeks of paid, hands-on training at $20 per hour. You will work alongside experienced professionals and learn to safely deliver and install refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers, laundry equipment, ventilation systems, and other household appliances.

Once you successfully complete training and demonstrate that you can independently perform basic installations, you may begin running your own route and become eligible to earn commission in addition to your base pay. As you develop your skills and advance through our Appliance Installation Technician levels, your commission percentage can grow with you.

What You’ll Learn

During your apprenticeship, you will learn how to:

• Safely deliver and install common household appliances
• Complete basic appliance installations according to manufacturer requirements
• Use hand tools, installation equipment, lifting straps, and hand trucks
• Take accurate measurements and evaluate installation areas
• Develop practical plumbing, electrical, venting, and carpentry skills
• Protect customers’ homes and leave work areas clean and organized
• Test appliances and confirm proper operation
• Communicate professionally with customers and team members
• Recognize common installation challenges and identify safe solutions
• Document completed installations with accurate notes and photos
• Load, secure, transport, and safely handle appliances
• Safely operate a company-owned 26-foot box truck

Your Career Path

This apprenticeship is designed to prepare you to run your own installation route.

After approximately four to six weeks of training, qualified apprentices who can safely and correctly perform basic installations may advance to an Appliance Installation Technician position.

At that point, you can:

• Begin running your own route
• Become eligible to earn commission in addition to base pay
• Advance through multiple levels of Appliance Installation Technician
• Increase your commission percentage as your skills and performance grow
• Build toward senior installer and leadership opportunities

Advancement is based on demonstrated skills, safe work practices, installation quality, productivity, customer service, and the ability to work independently.

You May Be a Great Fit If You

• Have strong mechanical aptitude and enjoy figuring out how things work
• Are dependable, punctual, and ready to learn
• Take pride in doing quality work
• Have a positive attitude and strong work ethic
• Can follow instructions and accept coaching
• Work effectively as an individual and part of a team
• Communicate clearly and treat customers professionally
• Can safely lift up to 50 pounds and maneuver heavier appliances using proper equipment
• Have a high school diploma or GED
• Have a valid driver’s license
• Can operate a 26-foot box truck or are willing and able to learn
• Can meet the requirements to be insured as a driver under the company’s vehicle insurance policy
• Are willing to complete the company’s background investigation and drug-screening process

Hands-on experience in construction, maintenance, delivery, moving, automotive work, warehouse operations, landscaping, farming, or a similar field is helpful—but not required.
