I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Troy Construction (Big Lake, TX) in Jan 2013
Interview
No actual interview per se for labor positions. Usually you are directly hired by reference or on a "who-you-know" basis. The whole process for new hires is extremely informal and non-invasive. For the most part, you are immediately hired on without question based on your references. Landing a job without a connection through the company is very improbable.
