No hiring off the streets. You must go through a temporary agency here in Marion, Ohio. You start at $10 an hour without benefits up until you are hired by Whirlpool. This takes approx. two years with expected lay offs lasting anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months. The interview was short and sweet. About 3 min. Simple questions asking why you want the job. Reliable transportation, etc. After being accepted you will go to safety and conditioning training. The conditioning part is to give you a small glimpse of what to expect on the assembly line.
