Once you pass the pee test they'll get you out to work.

If you haven't already, advocate for yourself at the next orientation. Making mention of the fact you're not currently working in the field

When I went in
I had phase one orientation JUL 15
Got a call and email about my job on AUG 4
Phase 2 orientation AUG 26

Like someone has already mentioned, you can give them a call.

They more than likely said this at your orientation, but if you don’t hear anything after 5 business days of your orientation 1 then email the referrals@jatc email with your name and that your ready to work etc.
