The last new hire of the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex's 1200 in 12 hiring initiative provides insight into how the process worked for him, and why he applied. The Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex is busy making modifications to the www.workatrobins.com website, and will soon be posting specific job opportunities for interested candidates to apply. Until those modifications are complete, candidates can still submit resumes directly into the database via a link on the website. The method the WR-ALC uses to post vacancy announcements for non-bargaining unit jobs changed June 24, 2019. Non-bargaining unit vacancy announcements will no longer be posted on www.USAJobs.gov. Instead, they will be posted on www.workatrobins.com. New vacancies will be posted on Mondays of each week as dictated by mission need. Interested candidates should frequent the www.workatrobins.com website to seek WR-ALC non-bargaining unit job opportunities and complete the process to submit a resume for consideration. Bargaining unit positions will continue to follow established procedures through Direct Hire Authority (DHA), Expedited Hire Authority (EHA), or traditional www.USAJobs.gov recruiting.
