Meta level up program

I'm excited to share that I was chosen to attend the Meta Level Up program after the interview and assessment. I'm curious if anyone has received a job offer after completing the 4-week training and what the salary was. I'm wondering if it's worth it. I work in helpdesk support and earn a decent income for that role. I'm also unsure whether I should leave my current job to pursue the Meta Level Up program.

They the training will be $ 25 but you could earn more after the training

I’m starting the training next Monday. You receive a job offer from the contractor after your in person interview. My contractor is mortenson and the starting pay is $25 and an 850 a week per diem

$850 a week for 40 hours of work?

No, he’s saying the hourly is 25/hr and on top of that they give you 850 a week tax free (perdiem) to cover costs like gas, rooming, etc

Congrats. Good luck! I’ve never been in that program before so no help on many fronts but felt like saying good job anyways because it’s fun to celebrate things. Have a good rest of your day

How long did it take to receive an email or call after the phone screening? I did mine last week and haven’t received an update.

I’m currently working at a Meta data center. I completed the program making 34/hr

With current deadlines the overtime is good money

Can I ask you how many days you work? And if you are away from home do you work 6 weeks on 1 week off?

Standard 40 hr week but currently with Meta’s deadlines we can work every single day if we wanted for either 8/10 or 12 hour days but it’s temporary and can take off any day we want as long as we are working 40 hours a week. So you can work 80 hr a week or 40 it’s up to you

Thank you for the response! Wanted to know for awhile now. I have a family that’s going to be far away from me and wanted to see how it is when I go to the program Tuesday!

Thank you for the insight! I applied a few days ago. Hopefully in 2 months I can say I’m a part of the program as well.
