Local Richmond/ VA candidates preferred, some ON SITE will be required in the future

Also, the selected candidates will be required to pick up equipment IN PERSON and agree to working 1-2 days a week ON SITE depending on agency's directive. Details of reg work schedule can be discussed with mgr during the interview (if selected) or upon acceptance.
