Both! Workback connects employers who are recruiting for open roles, as well as employers who are launching or scaling technical apprenticeships.

This is a full-time commitment: 40-45 hours per week for the six-month program.

For direct hiring, the salary listed in the job description is the best source for wage information. During Apprenticeships, you’ll be paid at a rate equivalent to your seniority. The top apprentices candidates earn up to $130,000 per year.

Upon completion of the apprenticeship, the company has the option to present you with a full-time offer to continue. You will transition to a full Employee with the company. Workback’s conversion rate from apprentice to full-time hires is 100% to date.

The assessment covers mostly easy and some medium challenges for skills that are taught in most full-stack bootcamps such as: Javascript, React, Node.js, HTML, and SQL. It helps us get a baseline understanding of your skills. Here's some examples: challenge 1, challenge 2. The estimated time to complete is 2-3 hours, but there is no time limit as long as you complete it all at once, so block your calendar for 4 hours just to be safe.

The other is a technical interview where you’ll be asked to walk through your approach to coding challenge on a virtual ‘whiteboard’ – refer to Cracking the Coding Interview to prepare for this interview.

Most apprenticeships are hybrid, including both remote and in-person experiences. Ideally, apprentices must be able to commute (or relocate) to your employers' city of preference. However, even if this is not a possibility, we encourage you to apply as there may be opportunities for a fully remote experience for the right candidate, and we may be able to match you to other companies. You must be authorized to work in the USA to be eligible.
