OJT- Co Employing

Co-Employing

Recruits can assist in multiple trades categories, but get one paycheck. Employers can offer multiple Recruits a trial period, but pay one invoice.

Cross-Training

We partner with Master’s Guild Association and other local training programs. This ensures Recruits have been exposed to how the trades work together so they can find their niche.

Frequently Asked Questions

“Without a good question, a good answer has no place to go”

Is this a real job?

Yes. Employment with Master’s Guild of Acadiana is a real job, our recruits are W-2 Employees. We hire for three different paid job positions: Project Assistant, Assembly Technician Assistant, and Building Construction Technician. Job openings may be part-time full-time or temp/gig work.

How much do recruits get paid?

Recruit pay rates range from $9.35 to $22.00 per hour. Pay rates are predetermined based on experience credits assigned by employer members during initial interviews. Once hired, recruits continue to accumulate experience credits and are reevaluated for performance based pay raises at scheduled milestones.

Do Recruits need to have a skill to apply?

We believe that everyone has a skill. If they think they don’t, they probably just haven’t found it yet. We’d like to help.

Yes. The Design–Build industry is full of really cool people.

Do Recruits have to attend a class?

Yes. Our minimum training requirement for employment is completion of Intro to Construction through Master’s Guild Association.

What does it cost an Employer?

Our membership fee for employers is $900 per year, but we don’t believe we cost employers anything. In fact, we save them time and money by removing the pains of recruiting, hiring, and work-ready training. MGA recruits are covered under our Worker’s Compensation policy, allowing employers to grow without being penalized at audit.

What types of companies co-hire with MGA?

Our employer members are suppliers, designers, contractors, and specialty trade companies. Their service categories range from full-service homebuilders to specific skilled technicians like tile installation. While this seems like a wide range, we found the responsibilities of assistant positions across these companies and categories are very similar.

How does MGA sponsor training?

A portion of every employer membership fee is donated to the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Master’s Guild Association. Find out more about what they do at mastersga.com.
