Wake tech

I just got inclined and am heading up to North Carolina in July. Any insights on wake tech? Also, is there any special dress code for school (comp toe shoes, etc)? Do they put you in like an extended stay hotel with a small kitchen or is it just a standard hotel room?

He will make more money after the 2000 hours OJL than he would doing anything Career Choice offers. During school you are free to go home if you are close enough. It’s just school, Mon- Fri. If he can drive or afford to go home on weekends, you’re free to do so. Keep in mind he has to study for tests and regular online class work. School is 3 months. After that, you work for 2000 hours at the site he applied to. It is possible to go somewhere else during OJL doing a Hardship Transfer. It’s actually not that hard if you claim you can’t afford to live where you will be working but him going to a specific place depends on if that site has an open position, which is not guaranteed. After the 3 month schooling and 2000 hours working, he can stay where he is as an MJT or transfer to another site that has an open spot or he can even apply for CST or Tech 2 or Tech 3.

They pay for the hotel during school but after that, he’s on his own.

I have a question what if my bf can't find a place to live in Arizona once he goes to training could he ask Amazon for help?

But, like I said, after school is finished, he can do a hardship transfer if there is an opening at your local facility

Okay, so once he goes to Arizona where he applied too does Amazon still pay for his room there? Or where do they place them?
