First Choice Staffing and Fiber Instrument Sales are seeking applicants for assembly and cable-warehouse positions.

An Oriskany hiring event will give job seekers a chance to interview for first-shift work on Thursday, November 12. First Choice Staffing will host the event with Fiber Instrument Sales from 9 to 11 a.m. at 161 Clear Road, Oriskany.

Hiring managers will be available to interview candidates for multiple openings, according to a news release supplied by First Choice Staffing. The listed positions are first-shift assembly workers and first-shift cable-warehouse workers.

What applicants should bring

The announcement asks applicants to bring two forms of identification and be prepared to complete an application and interview on site. It does not identify specific documents or provide a full list of job requirements.

Applicants who have questions about identification, accessibility or the application process can call First Choice Staffing at 315-736-3884 before traveling. The release identifies Jonathan Loomis as the event contact.

The event is an opportunity to apply and speak with hiring managers, not a guarantee of a job offer. No number of available positions or immediate hiring commitment was given.

Questions worth asking at the interview

The release does not state pay rates, benefits, exact daily start and end times, or whether the openings are temporary, temp-to-hire or direct-hire positions. Those are useful details for applicants to ask about before accepting an offer.

Other practical questions include what training is provided, what duties each role involves, what experience is required and when selected applicants would be expected to start. These are suggested questions, not additional requirements announced by the organizers.

For workers looking for daytime hours in Oneida County, the first-shift designation is a useful starting point. However, applicants should confirm the actual schedule rather than assuming that all first-shift jobs have the same hours.
