IT Construction Estimator Job at Five Points Networks LLC

Five Points Networks LLC Remote

This is an IT Construction Estimator position and will be primarily responsible for estimating plans and spec jobs, including a detailed and designed assessing process, as defined below. This position will be accountable for meeting bid deadlines while providing exceptional customer service. The position requires ongoing communication with the team. Must identify all IT and network components, for example, Cat5e/Cat6e/Cat8, plenum or non-plenum, J-hooks, Keystones, Plates, Labor, Racks, Patch Panels, APs, Cameras, and Audio/Video.

There are five stages in our hiring process:

1. The Review:

2. The Estimating Assessment: (If you can do this, you can do anything sent your way)

3. The Estimate Review: (Then you put it on the shortlist)

4. The Interview: (30 min video meet and greet and Q/A)

5. The Face-to-Face Meeting: (We will have a meeting to finalize the process)

Do some people ask why we would have you assess the interview?

Answer: Well, for us, the answer is simple, we'll find out how dedicated someone will be, and because we have to trust the work of our estimator, integrity is key, only after the assessment review will an interview be given.

Each candidate will be required to complete an assessment before being considered to move forward as an estimating contractor with Five Points Networks; if you can handle this assignment, you will be able to complete much larger estimating projects. We must do the assessments to ensure trust in the candidate's knowledge and abilities to meet the estimates.

Remember that you only estimate the technology items in the plans (Cat5e/Cat6e/Cat8, plenum or non-plenum, J-hooks, Keystones, Plates, Labor, Racks, APs, Cameras, and Audio/Video.) Just like it's outlined above).

The position pays 6% of the bid after all expenses. For example, if it's a 100,000 Dollar project, the pay would be $2100.00 if there is a 35% profit margin. If you complete 20 estimates a month and we win 11 of them, your part would be $23,100 plus your base pay based on the figures of $100,000 @ 35%.
