BBSI (Barrett Business Services, Inc.) is pleased and very proud to be able to offer employment to ANY WYA GRADUATING CADET or Cadet Graduate in the Puget Sound area between Olympia & S. Seattle that is 18 YRS OR OLDER and has or can count on RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION.
BBSI also has offices in MOSES LAKE, PASCO & YAKIMA that may need help and I’d be happy to pass on Cadet information to those areas in an attempt to help them also get gainful employment. Most work in those areas will revolve around AGRICULTURE in processing or packing houses.
In the Puget Sound area, work can vary between woodworking, plastics manufacturing, sheet metal, general warehouse, landscaping, assembly processes, laundry/linen services and others. Wages will vary between $9.50/hr and $14/hr, depending on location and type of work….most jobs will pay +/- $11/hr and most will give the Cadets a chance to earn a PERMANENT POSITION with that company as/if they wish.
All jobs will require basic work clothes (long pants/shirt/shoes)…some will require steel toed shoes (Payless Shoes or Walmart for under $30). You can also apply to the Foundation for work clothing assistance (click here)They may be issued SAFETY EQUIPMENT such as eye protection, ear plugs, or gloves.
Shifts available will include DAY SHIFT (usually a start time between 6 and 7am, SWING (usually a start time between 2 and 3pm) and GRAVEYARD (usually a start time between 10 and 11pm). Most will be 8-hr shifts but some may be ROTATING 12-hr shifts, depending on where they are placed. Cadets may need to be willing to work a shift besides day shift in order to be placed quickly.
While most will be general labor (lift/carry/stack/count/simple assembly or assembly-line work), some will require additional skills like ability to read a tape measure, simple math, mechanical aptitude, ability to use simple hand tools.
Most of the available work is between Tacoma and Seattle. RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION & ATTENDANCE IS VITAL FOR THEIR SUCCESS.
This could really be a WIN-WIN for those looking to stay busy, make money and perhaps help their families as they enter the Post-Residential phase in their process or have completed the program successfully.
You MUST have picture ID, and be prepared for Drug Screening and National Background checks as part of BBSI’s intake process. The application process at our offices can take up to 3 hrs, depending on the applicant and the placement they are being considered for. ALL INTAKE IS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, so we do NOT take walk-ins for this process. BBSI has offices in KENT (2) & FIFE, so one of those locations will be where they will initially visit and work with one of my staff of recruiters & HR Professionals.
