I’m currently looking for a new/better job. Currently employed with a stable job here in Monroe, but I want to better myself and my family. Was browsing Indeed earlier and saw a posting for an Apprentice with ISC Constructors at the Rayville data center site.

Before I applied I thought I would get on here and ask if any of you guys/gals know anything about the company (good, bad, pay, etc) and whether or not I should apply.
Geaux Tigers!

I was employed by them 10 years ago. Its a good outfit, depending on the customer's site. Do you have any certifications?

The only certification I have is OSHA 10. I guess that counts lol.

I don’t have any construction/trades experience. Just trying to get my foot in the door out there somehow. I know jobs out there aren’t permanent, but there’s definitely money to be made.

The job I saw posted is for an Electrical Apprentice.

They are doing quite a bit of data center work, projects all over the country.

Its probably a good way to get started, lots of hours and lots of exposure in a short time. If you're willing to work hard and travel, there is definitely opportunity.

It's a different world than their typical industrial projects.

ETA: Each data center isnt necessarily a long term gig. Even then, it depends on what scope they have on each building. It could be everything from underground and build out or just a portion. They could have multiple buildings or just one. Depending on the size of the campus, work will be going on for quite some time. If you want to stay at that site, it is probably easy if you switch outfits to whomever has the work.

How did you end up with OSHA 10 but didn't work any construction/trades jobs? Anyway, hell yeah apply. Get out there and get your piece of that giant pie. ISC has several divisions though. Which division is hiring? Civil? Scaffolding? Electrical?

I just paid $60 and took the course online. It’s took me about a week or so to complete it. I have a friend (no construction experience) that got hired on not too long ago with ENFRA, and he’s making $2,000/week.

He texted me the other day and said they’re about to do a big hire. He asked for my info and he turned in to his supervisor. I applied, went back a few days later to check the status of my application and it said “not moving forward”. Definitely disappointing.

ETA: the job is for an electrical apprentice.

You’ll never get the job now that you’ve posted on a message board about it

What’s an apprentice? We’re all executives or owners here, buddy.

Get back on the fryer damnit. Lady at the window just made me pull up and says y’all are out of spicy.



Good luck on the hunt. Always happy to see people trying to better themselves. For the record, that’s what you should say when you get to an interview. “I may not have experience but I am determined to better myself and I will work my arse off for you given the opportunity.”

Ive heard good things. The least they can tell you is no. Wouldn't hurt to apply unless taking out the hour it would take to fill out the application is too much.

We have spicy but Jamal doesn’t want to put his phone down long enough to cook it.

Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it!

I know the Ripone's personally and they are good people. Really good people.

Back in the day ISC stood for in-laws sons and cousins.

And that was highly accurate

I don't know if that's still the case though. All the ones I knew were around my age and are probably retired as well.
