Rep Power: 67 | Re: interview today It depends on the facility.. In our small center You go to Feeder unload unless your a female.. If your a female you usually start at the sort.. then quickly move to loading. I was only in feeder unload 2-3 days before I was moved to a load position, and the guy before me was there a week. But I've seen people in feeder unload for 6 months before they got moved. |
