Hiring Process
The hiring process for every company is different and their requirements will vary depending on location and current mission. We have utilized our years of experience to create the following list to assist you in the hiring process.
Since you are going to work on the US Military base, it is required that you possess a firm grasp of the English language (reading, writing and speaking). There will also be a series of English tests that you are required to complete prior to employment. Many candidates are overconfident in their English speaking abilities. You should be able to speak in complete sentences and understand instructions from your supervisor. Completing courses in English before leaving on deployment are highly recommended.
The following is required to be considered for employment;
- You should have passport with at least 16 months of validity.

- You should be able to go through complete medical checkup and drug screening and TB Test.
- If you are above the age of 40, you may be required to go through more medical checkups.
You should also know;
- You will be given orientation on the working and living conditions at the Military base camp, after you are hired.
- Recruiters may or may not give the job on the spot, so be prepared.
- For most of the positions salaries are fixed so don’t try to negotiate
LOGCAP recruiters simply can’t afford to hire job candidates who don’t have the potential to work out. They want solid, reliable employees who bring their best to the workplace every day, specially on a LOGCAP project. They value employees who are clear communicators, self-motivated, team players, hard working and honest.
LOGCAP recruiter going to start looking at applications much more in-depth, and the second cut will involve applying weighted pre-screening criteria to each and every potential job candidate.
One of the ways your honesty is measured is by taking the WABI (Work Assessment Behavioral Inventory) test during orientation. In this test, you will be asked a series of questions which will indicate whether you can follow orders, work as a team member, keep your emotions in check and whether you’re honest or not. They will try to trip you up by asking the same questions in a different way to see if you give conflicting answers.
