Love to drive? Love kids? Putnam County Schools in West Virigina is now accepting applications for new school bus operators!

But I am not certified

No worries! To become a driver applicants will first go through the interview process. If chosen, you will then complete a 40-hour training course, including 12 hours spent behind the wheel. Driver classes tend to take six weeks in addition to other necessary certifications. Upon class completion, you will receive your CDL license.

What else will I need

In addition to this training course, other qualifications bus operators will need in West Virginia include certification in First Aid and CPR, a passing grade on the state test, a clean driving record, and the ability to pass a background check, which includes a drug screening. Drivers receive all the training necessary during the class. The cost of certification is approximately $400. Drivers will be reimbursed if they are hired and in good standing after one year.

When do I need to apply

NOW! Applicants will begin classes after the interview process is complete this month. The next upcoming driver class however will be scheduled for June 2021.

For more information on how to become a school bus operator or questions on applying, contact Putnam County Schools at 304-586-0500, ext. 1103.

Thinking about working for a brewery? Good news, business is BOOMING in #WestVirginia

However it's important to know if you have what it takes, so check out these top 3 traits to have shared from Celine Frueh (Human Resources Director at Allagash Brewing Company).

Gratitude

Gratitude is an important trait—what we have found in our most successful employees—are people who can feel grateful about something. They might be grateful for the coffee in the breakroom or things in their personal life; if it’s a trait that you go through your life with, that’s appealing to us because you’re going to add positivity to the workplace.

Be Passionate about what you do- not just beer

Anyone who works hard and has a passion for excellence in their work, whether it’s accounting or packaging on a production line, can be a great addition to the craft beer industry. “We found that people who have a strong work ethic, prioritize doing the job correctly and treat coworkers with respect, work out best for us. Appreciation for beer can come with time, but these personality traits are harder to cultivate.”

Be Positive

Frueh often interviews prospective employees by asking questions that don’t necessarily have a right or wrong answer, but rather provides an opportunity for the candidate to showcase their personality. She’s also keeping a keen ear out for a positive vibe. “I used to think even if someone doesn’t have a positive outlook on things, well, we have a great workplace, so they can get on board and be more positive. But I have consistently found that folks who complain a lot, or see things in a negative way, tend to drag down their teams. I now know that employees that are more positive, tend to contribute more to our culture in a productive and positive way.”

You’re a fun and friendly person who values customers and takes absolute pride in everything you do. Communication skills are key – you’re not going to be able to text message customers back and forth. In other words, you should be comfortable talking to strangers.

You’ve got attitude - the right kind of course - and understand the need to be on time, all the time. With loads of energy, you understand that work is easier – and more fun – with some teamwork.

And you’re at least 16 years old – 18 if you want to be a driver.

Keep in mind, this is just basic information. You’ll find out more after you apply. And independently-owned franchised or licensed locations may have different requirements.
