There are two ways you can register with APA Services. One is to fax us an up-to-date resume to (817) 560-5456, the other is to submit your resume online.

When our clients are hiring contractors, they are typically looking for people that can hit the ground running and that require very little direction. For this reason, we recommend that you at least have a minimum of two years experience in the aviation industry before inquiring about contract assignments.

Yes. In almost all cases you will be required to report to your assignment with your own tools. In some cases you may even be required to have a shadowed tool box and your tools etched for personal identification. On rare occasions, a client may have a consolidated tool box in the area that you will be working and in this case you would not be required to have or bring your tools.

Yes. When you arrive at your assignment destination, you will need to call your recruiter so that they can process your advance. You MUST have at least 16 verifiable hours on the clock in order to be eligible for an advance. The maximum amount you can request is $200.00.

All APA employees are paid each week via direct deposit. Each employee has 7 day 24 hour web access to their own pay stubs and W-2’s.

By law, APA Services is required to send out all employee W-2 forms on or before January 31st. It is your responsibility as the employee to keep our payroll department notified of any changes in address. If you are expecting to receive a W-2 and have moved one or more times since your last assignment with us, we recommend updating your information. If APA Services does not have a good address on you, the employee, we will most likely hold your W-2 form at our corporate office until Payroll is given further mailing instructions by you, the employee.

Yes. Some of our clients do have a uniform policy that applies to contract employee as well as direct employees. In this case, you will be required to purchase uniforms to meet the minimal requirements. The typical Dress Code for a FBO and/or Completion Center includes having a neat, clean-cut appearance, work pants or jeans, shirt or t-shift (non-offensive), and in some cases steel toe boots.

YES, ABSOLUTELY! If you are going to reschedule or back out all together it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that you notify your recruiter so that we can let our client know what is going on. If you do not call and do not show up for the assignment you have committed to, you will be considered a No Show and may not be eligible for consideration for future contract assignments.
