1. A Friendly Phone Call: Let's chat! (Callbacks will start this Monday).

2. One-Day Paid Trial Shift: A chance for you to see what it's like to work with our team, and for us to see your natural creativity and spirit in action.

3. Supportive Check-Ins: We provide clear feedback and coaching at 3 days and 2 weeks as you learn the ropes.

4. The Final Offer: After 90 days of hands-on experience and growth, we will extend a final offer to officially welcome you as a permanent part of the Walter Knoll family.
