Apprenticeship FAQ

Applicant FAQs

How does the Apprentices program prepare participants for missions?

Apprentices train with experienced aviators and technicians to hone their skills for deployment to a JAARS hub. In addition, discipleship conversations revolve around preparing for missions.

What are the expectations for continuing work with JAARS after my apprenticeship?

After you have finished your apprentice training, you are expected to serve a three-year term overseas and one year back at JAARS base in North Carolina. At that time, discussions will be had about longer term service with JAARS.

What is JAARS looking for in an Apprentice candidate?

A JAARS Apprentice candidate must be a believer with a deep and growing relationship with God, must agree to the JAARS statement of faith, must be an active member of a biblically-solid church, and embrace the vision and mission of JAARS.
An apprentice must also have the appropriate aviation certifications, personal attributes, and be willing to pursue overseas deployment with JAARS. Aviation certifications include:
- Pilot: Commercial pilot license with instrument rating and valid Class II FAA Medical or equivalent (Prefer: High performance and tailwheel aircraft endorsement)
- Mechanic: Airframe and Powerplant certificates, or ICAO equivalent
An Apprentice’s spouse, if applicable, must be supportive and willing to be trained in preparing for an overseas assignment.

Are JAARS apprentices paid?

In addition to ongoing aviation training costs and significantly subsidized housing costs, apprentices are paid $16 an hour. After the successful completion of the apprenticeship, staff members are paid a salary set in accordance with their qualifications/certification.

Besides technical training, what else is provided for Apprentices?

Apprentices receive one-on-one discipleship and a thorough compensation and benefits package that includes significantly subsidized housing, insurance, retirement, and paid time off.
Pre-field training beyond aviation training—such as cross-cultural training, security training, language acquisition training, prayer partnership development training, and more—is also a part of the apprenticeship. Spouses of apprentices should plan to take part in this aspect of training as well.

What are the apprentice's normal work hours?

Apprentices typically train and/or serve for 40 hours a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with an hour lunch break. However, some training events will require longer hours and travel. Discipleship meetings typically occur during the 40 hours per week.

Outside of training for the field, what other program activities are part of the apprenticeship?

There will be important opportunities for apprentices to participate in relationship building with their deployment team and/or other apprentices, forming essential bonds before going overseas. While some of that bonding will happen during work hours, it’s vital for the whole deployment team, including spouses and children, to socialize outside of work hours.
Apprentices should also develop and cultivate a partnership team who will support them through prayer. They do this through regular newsletters and communication with partners and/or their local church outside of work hours. As part of their apprenticeship training, they will learn how to build their prayer team and will receive periodic check-ins with Apprentices staff on their progress.

How will my role as an apprentice contribute to the vision and mission of JAARS?

By joining Apprentices, you are taking an active step in reducing barriers, easing burdens, and delivering God’s Word in a remote location overseas. You will receive training that will enable you to serve at an overseas JAARS hub.

When will I know I have been accepted to JAARS Apprentices?

After you have gone through the interview and assessment process, if JAARS personnel feel confident that you and your family are a good fit for the program, you will receive communications from JAARS Human Resources, with a formal offer letter to join JAARS Apprentices.

What do I do after I have been accepted to Apprentices?

Celebrate! Complete any trainee onboarding paperwork sent by JAARS, and set up a meeting with the leadership of your local church. Share with them what you are doing and ask them to partner with you in prayer.

Apprentices Life and Culture FAQs

What are the accommodations like in my apartment?

Apprentices rent fully-furnished apartments on the JAARS Base. Unmarried apprentices may share with another apprentice of the same gender. Apartments include a kitchen, cooking appliances, living room, bedroom(s), and a shared bathroom. Married apprentices work directly with JAARS Housing to find the unit that works for their family. Monthly rent is $150, including utilities, internet, and laundry facilities.

What should I bring with me when I move to JAARS?

Apartments are fully furnished, so bring only what you really need, such as clothes and personal supplies. Decorations can also never hurt! Check out a video walkthrough of one of the two-bedroom, two-bath apartments at this link.

Do I need a car?

The JAARS Base is located about 6 miles from Waxhaw, North Carolina, and 12 miles from Lancaster, South Carolina. While a car is not required for JAARS Apprentices, most people find it helpful to bring their own cars.

What resources are available for my family while I am an apprentice?

Spouses of apprentices receive bimonthly discipleship like apprentices do.
There are childcare options available, a few of which are listed below. Read about all of the children and youth resources available here.
- Apprentices may choose to enroll their children in the JAARS MK Station at the Apprentices’ expense. MK Station is a preschool facility for children from 3 months of age through kindergarten.
- Summer Safari is a summer program that serves first grade through fifth grade students.
- Middle schoolers and high schoolers may participate in the JAARS youth group.
Families will also receive training in preparation for serving overseas.

Where is my mail delivered?

While you are at JAARS, you will use the following addresses:
Letters:
JAARS/Apprentices
Your Name
PO Box 248
Waxhaw, NC 28173

Packages:
JAARS/Apprentices
Your Name
7601 Radin Road
Waxhaw, NC 28173

What is it like to live in the Waxhaw area?

JAARS is located 30 minutes south of the outer beltway of Charlotte, North Carolina, and 20 minutes from Lancaster, South Carolina. We are 10 minutes from Main Street in “downtown” Waxhaw.

The JAARS Base is a beautiful 600+ acre rural campus with recreational areas and a swimming pool, 18-hole disc golf course, library, dining room, health clinic, RV park, childcare facilities, and youth ministries. In the community, one can find game-night groups, volleyball groups, Bible studies, as well as other special events.

Waxhaw, North Carolina, is a family-friendly, historic, small town, surrounded by a natural backdrop of rolling hills, horse country, and outdoor recreation. It has creative and performing arts, vibrant music, antiques, and good old-fashioned parades.

Lancaster, South Carolina, is also a historic small town with a state university campus, shopping areas, several festivals and events, as well as a yearly Christmas parade.

What recreational activities are there in the Waxhaw area?

Recreational activities in the Waxhaw area include escape room games, mini golf, beautiful parks, delicious places to eat, and much more! Here are some examples of what is in the area:

Cane Creek Park: biking, walking, kayaking, picnicking

Rock Hill Riverwalk
40 Acre Rock Heritage Park

What does spiritual development look like on a practical level?

You (and your spouse) will meet bimonthly (separately) with your discipler. Your discipler has conversation topics designed to help you prepare spiritually for your overseas deployment, but you and your discipler can also tailor your meetings to what’s most effective for you. In addition, you (and your spouse) will attend our InterCultural Communications Course, which focuses on spiritual preparation for overseas service. There are also many good churches in the Waxhaw area where you can grow in your faith.

What does professional development look like on a practical level?

During Apprentices, you will train with experienced mission aviators, most who have prior overseas experience. They will tailor the training to your learning needs. Some learning opportunities may include: training classes, Pre-Field Orientation, and Mountain Week.

What does building my team look like on a practical level?

JAARS will provide opportunities for team-building with your apprenticeship group as well as integration into the larger JAARS community.
During your apprenticeship, you will have the opportunity to develop teamwork dynamics with other missions-minded individuals. Some of these individuals will be your future overseas teammates, enabling you to build relationships before you go to the field.
Outside of work, there will be additional opportunities to build community with the other apprentices and their families.

Deployment FAQs

Where does JAARS plan to deploy teams?

JAARS will deploy apprentices to future hubs of operation in the swath of dense jungle areas we call the Green Band.

How are deployment locations determined?

During your apprenticeship, you will have conversations with a task force of Human Resources and Air Operations representatives who will work with you to determine the best fit for you and your family.

When will I know my deployment location?

By the end of your apprenticeship, you will have your deployment location and may know many members of your deployment team. The second half of your apprenticeship will focus on training, both cultural and technical, specific to your deployment location.

How soon after my apprenticeship can I expect to be deployed?

Once you are proficient in the necessary skills, your apprenticeship training will end. This training can take up to two years. You can expect to be deployed as soon as possible after your apprenticeship. The political climate, visa applications, language acquisition training, and other factors will be considerations in the timing of your deployment.

How long is a deployment?

You can expect to be deployed for three years before returning to the JAARS Base in North Carolina. This time of “home assignment” will be defined prior to your return to the United States.

Do I have to raise support to be deployed?

You do not need to raise financial support to be deployed. You will, however, build a partnership team of people who will support you through prayer.

Will the flight program at a hub include commercial work?

Yes, commercial income helps offset operational expenses as well as flight costs for both national and expat missionaries.

The job gets posted on various sites including the JAARS website and Handshake, among others. We then work to review all applications and resumes submitted. Applications are submitted through our applicant tracking system (ATS). Applicants select the position they are most interested in, create an account in our ATS, and complete the application. If more than one position is of interest, there is a place on the application to mark a second and third position preference.

3. Screen & First Interview

We review and screen candidates, inviting qualified applicants to an initial phone interview with the current HR Fellow. In this interview, we assess competencies and cultural fit, among other things.

4. Check References

If a candidate has a successful first interview, the HR Fellow conducts reference checks with the references provided on the candidate’s application.

5. Second Interview

We then pass along qualified candidates to the hiring manager for further review and a second-round Zoom interview. This interview includes the interviewee, Fellows Coordinator, and hiring manager.

6. Offer Letter Sent

Once those references and interviews are completed, the Fellows Admin Team, along with hiring managers, decide which candidates to invite to join JAARS Fellows. Official offer letters are sent to six candidates for each cohort. Candidates typically have 1-2 weeks to respond to offer letters.

7. Offer Acceptance & Onboarding

Once a candidate accepts their offer, the current HR Fellow coordinates the completion of the criminal background check and all onboarding paperwork. New fellows then register for ICC and stay attentive from correspondence from the HR Fellow and Fellows Coordinator as their start date approaches.

Our hiring process takes anywhere from 30-120 days. The process varies for individuals depending on the position, candidate pool, applicant date, and the cohort for which a candidate is applying.

JAARS Interns’ Hiring Process

This guide details the steps we take to ensure a thorough and communicative hiring process. From job creation to onboarding, this list helps candidates understand where they are in the process and what to expect next.

Prayer

Before application season, our team goes to the Lord in prayer and asks that he would lead the right candidates to apply and that the team would honor him with their selection.

Post and Review

The Internship is posted on various sites, including the JAARS website and Handshake. Applications are submitted through the JAARS Applicant Tracking System (ATS). Applicants create an account in the ATS and complete the application, selecting the project tracks in which they are most interested. If more than one project track is of interest, an applicant can mark up to three tracks. The team then reviews all applications and resumes submitted.

Screen and First Interview

After the team reviews and screens candidates, they invite qualified applicants to an initial video interview with the current Human Resources Fellow and the Interns Coordinator. The purpose of the interview is to assess competencies and cultural fit, among other considerations, and explore specific project options within the applicant’s chosen project tracks.

Reference Checks

If a candidate has a successful first interview, the Human Resources Fellow conducts checks with the references provided on the candidate’s application.

Explore & Assign Projects

With gathered information from the first interview and the reference checks, the team then determines the best open projects within the applicants chosen project tracks.

Second Interview

Once likely projects are selected, applicants are invited to a video interview with the Interns Coordinator, Human Resources Fellow, and the project manager to explore team dynamics and project details.

Offer Letter

Official offer letters are sent to four-six candidates for each Interns Cohort. Candidates typically have one–two weeks to respond to offer letters.

Offer Acceptance and Onboarding

Once candidates accept their offers, the current Human Resources Fellow coordinates the completion of criminal background checks and all onboarding paperwork. New interns respond to correspondence from the Human Resources Fellow and the Interns Coordinator as their start date approaches.

The hiring process takes anywhere from 30–120 days. The process varies for individuals depending on candidate pool and application completion date.
