Comments/Special Instructions

We are open to most candidates. While a Wastewater License or experience in wastewater/drinking water is preferred, we are willing to train someone who hasn\'t worked in this industry before. The most important thing to stress to candidates is that once they are trained, they will be added to an On-call rotation each month, where, for a week, they will be required to work a weekend and answer all callouts/alarms that occur at the facility. We would also prefer someone who is willing and ok to work overtime, as we often have new construction projects or equipment failures that may require extra time to be spent at the project site.
