Work with CPC as a subPay
Paid per point, and how to move up.
Every job is worth a set number of points, from 9 for a quick job up to 50 for the biggest ones. You earn between $2.40 and $3.00 for each point you complete, and you're paid every Friday.
Most techs make $150 to $300 a day. Where you land depends on your route and how much available work you pick up on top of it.
As a 1099 contractor you're paid the full amount, with nothing withheld. Taxes and fuel are on you, so set money aside for both from your first check.

Training
New to the trade? You'll be paid to learn it.
Every new CPC tech trains for 2 to 3 weeks alongside one of our leads, paid $15 an hour. You'll learn the install standards, the equipment and how a route runs, on real jobs.
When your trainer says you're ready, sometimes sooner than three weeks, you get your own truck and start running routes at the per-point rate. If you need a little more time, you get it.

The work
What a day actually looks like.
Internet service is part of everyday life now. Families rely on it for work, school and staying in touch, and our installers are the people who connect it.
The work is hands-on and it moves fast. Each day you run a route of jobs across the metro, from quick 9-point jobs to 50-point ones, and you can pick up available work on top of your route. You'll be in neighborhoods, in yards and inside customers' homes.
Some days are simple, and some days make you think on your feet. That is part of the work.

The people
Who does well at CPC.
Skill matters. Consistency matters more. The installers who do well here usually have a few things in common.
They're dependable.
They show up when they say they will, and nobody has to chase them down.
They care about the details.
A clean line, a respectful conversation with the customer, and a job done right the first time all matter.
They handle field work.
Not every job goes to plan. Good installers stay calm, adapt and keep moving.
They know reputation matters.
In a customer's home or on their property, you're representing CPC and the provider.

Questions
Asked before every application.
Do I need telecom experience?
No. Every new tech gets 2 to 3 weeks of paid training at $15 an hour with one of our leads. Construction, low-voltage, cable, fiber, utility or other hands-on field work helps, and experienced techs can move to their own truck sooner.
How does pay work?
Per point. Jobs are worth 9 to 50 points, and you earn $2.40 to $3.00 per point depending on your experience, attendance, return rate and customer reviews. Most techs make $150 to $300 a day, paid every Friday. Every CPC tech is a 1099 contractor, so nothing is withheld.
Do I need my own truck and tools?
No. CPC provides the truck and every tool you need on the job. Fuel is yours.
Can I learn fiber if I've only done cable, or the other way around?
Yes. Most techs start on one, and cross-training on the other is available to anyone who wants it.
Do you work with subcontractor crews?
Yes. Crew owners with their own techs, trucks and insurance can apply through the same form. Choose "I run a crew" and tell us your headcount.
Where is the work located?
In homes and apartment buildings across the Omaha metro, as far east as Council Bluffs, Iowa. We add new areas as we add crews. **[Confirm the western reach before launch.]**
What kind of work does CPC do?
Residential installs: fiber, coax cable, drop bury and multi-unit (MDU) buildings.
What should I include in my application?
Your experience, including any construction, low-voltage, cable or fiber work, whether you want fiber, cable or either, and when you can start. A résumé is optional.
