Why would a remote position require a certain state or area of residence?

• Our clients hold contracts with many Federal and State agencies that require all employees to reside in the state where they are located. This is not an AdNet requirement, it is a requirement of the client’s contract.​

What does PRN mean?

• It means “as needed”. The initials stand for pro re nata, a Latin phrase that translates to as needed or as the situation arises. A PRN employee works when called, to fill in for an absent employee or to cover a special situation. PRN work gives employees a chance to make extra money and the freedom to choose assignments and shifts.​

This position sounds like one I have already applied for directly or through another staffing firm.  I’d prefer to work with AdNet - can I still do so?

• It depends on several factors and every candidate’s situation is different.  When there is a dual application scenario, candidate ownership comes into play.  AdNet will need to know the exact position, how long ago, and the result of your application with the company or competing firm in order to investigate further.​

If I’m partnering with AdNet to get placed, can I also apply directly on the client’s website for this position?

• Candidates who are engaged with AdNet for placement, should NOT make application on our client’s website.  Doing so could negate AdNet’s ability to represent you during any stage of the hiring process.  Additionally, applying on your own potentially adds you to a large pool of candidates without the benefits of advocacy AdNet can provide.  There is one exception to this guidance and that is if you have received a job offer from our client and advised to apply to get into their internal system. ​

Is there a cost to me as a candidate to utilize AdNet services?  How is the agency paid?

• Aside from an investment of your time, there is no cost to candidates for AdNet services.  AdNet’s placement fees are fully paid (100%) by the clients we serve.​

How do I enter my time worked?

How do I access my paystub?

• You will receive log in credentials and the link to Doculivery to access your paystub. The paystub can be printed and downloaded from the portal.​

When will I receive my W-2?

• AdNet mails W2’s by January 31st. If you have not received your W-2 in a timely manner, you may reach out to your point of contact for an electronic copy.​

Am I responsible for the cost of shipping client owned equipment back?
