Relief Supervisor in East Calgary

Well respected and a great group to work with.
Started at the bottom and through hard work and maintaining a positive attitude I found it was an easy and fund place to work. I definitely recommend the city for a work/life balance.

Driver/Swamper in Calgary, AB

Easy work, won't get rich doing this
I came in as a seasonal swamper/ driver in training for one of the divisions with the City of Calgary. The work is very easy. However, do not expect to get rich working here as there is virtually no overtime and by the time you're pension and benefits come off, you are making far less than expected per paycheck. Good group of guys, the Foreman are decent guys and gals as well.

They literally don't ask any questions. You apply and if you are selected you get a call to either participate or not. If yes training times are provided after you are given a role. It could not require less professional vetting.
