Tell us about your business/organization and what makes you stand out as an employer?

Collins Custom Contracting Corp has been in business for 41 years. We are a General Contractor with our own in-house carpenters, high-end finishers, painters, etc. In addition we have a full-fledged in-house millwork shop and spraying facility.

A majority of our employees have been here long term, with some as long 25 years. We specialize in high-end custom homes with high-end finishes. We take a lot of pride in our work and stand behind it. We’ve never formally advertised. Most of our work is word of mouth. We work anywhere from Port Alberni to the Gulf Islands.

All staff members are all very easy going and great to work with. We are a great group of people to work with. Any new employee is treated fairly and with respect. Our wages tend to be towards the higher end for the most part.

How many employees do you have?

We can have anywhere from 15 – 25 employees, depending on the projects we having going on.

What do you look for in a new employee?

Strong work ethic. They show up on time, ready to work. Must show a willingness to learn especially if their experience is minimal. Also need to take direction well and accept some criticism if/when it happens.

What advice would you give someone who wants to work for your organization?

Be ready and willing to work. Show enthusiasm and willingness to learn. Basically same as above with what we look for in a new employee. Be expected to commute to some jobs that may not be in the area you live in.

Do you anticipate hiring in the next 6 months? If so for what types of positions?

Yes. We will be doing a couple new home builds in the very near future and we have a  few high-end renovations coming up as well.

What is the best way for someone to apply if they are interested in working for your organization?
