What is a Weekend Apprenticeship job?

A Weekend Apprenticeship job is a training program that allows individuals to gain hands-on experience in a specific trade or profession while working primarily on weekends. It is designed for those who may have weekday commitments, such as school or another job, but still want to develop skills and gain industry experience. Apprentices typically work under the supervision of experienced professionals and may receive structured learning alongside practical tasks. This type of apprenticeship can be found in various fields, including construction, healthcare, and technology.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Weekend Apprenticeship position, and why are they important?

To succeed in a Weekend Apprenticeship, candidates typically need a basic educational background relevant to the trade or industry, strong willingness to learn, and reliability. Familiarity with industry-specific tools, safety procedures, or vocational training programs can be an advantage, depending on the field. Excellent time management, adaptability, and teamwork are key soft skills that stand out in this role. These qualifications are essential as weekend apprenticeships often involve hands-on learning, collaboration, and meeting expectations in a condensed timeframe.

What can I expect during a typical weekend as an apprentice, and how is training structured?

As a weekend apprentice, you'll generally spend your time performing hands-on tasks under the supervision of experienced professionals, while occasionally attending workshops or training sessions. The structure typically includes a blend of on-the-job learning, shadowing, and feedback from mentors, focusing on practical skills central to the chosen industry. Since the role is concentrated over weekends, you can expect a focused but intensive learning environment where effective time management is crucial. You'll also have opportunities to collaborate with other apprentices or team members, building both technical and interpersonal skills. This structure is designed to give you valuable experience while fitting around your weekday commitments.

Job description

Apprentice Plumber

Founded in 1935, Roto-Rooter is North America's largest plumbing, drain cleaning, and water cleanup services provider. Roto-Rooter operates businesses in over 100 company-owned branches, independent contractor territories, and approximately 400 independent franchise operations, serving approximately 90% of the U.S. population and parts of Canada.

If you are looking for job security, career growth, competitive compensation, flexible schedules, and comprehensive benefits with a reputable national plumbing service provider, Roto-Rooter offers a rewarding opportunity.

First year Roto-Rooter service technicians can expect top-pay, earning $65,000-$75,000, on average. Pay increases quickly with each year of experience.

Roto-Rooter provides an initial 12 weeks of paid training plus continual training in our plumbing school. You’ll earn while you learn the trade, and we’ll guide you through the plumber licensing process to help you advance.


  • Roto-Rooter plumbing apprentices/service technicians utilize their skills to provide effective solutions for plumbing and drain issues, ensuring customer satisfaction.
  • A plumbing service call starts with diagnosing issues and offering cost estimates to finalize the transaction.
  • Make the necessary repairs for the customer.
  • Document estimates and invoices, both in writing and on a provided smart phone.
  • Collect payment and move on to the next service call.

  • A valid driver’s license.
  • Effective communication skills.
  • A mechanical aptitude and solid problem-solving skills are desirable, but prior experience is not necessary.

Service technicians are paid an hourly rate of $17.00 to $24.00 during training. After training, they are paid an hourly rate at or above the minimum wage for all hours worked. The hourly pay rate may vary, depending on whether the pay is for base pay paid at the employee’s base hourly rate (minimum wage), or administrative pay for administrative hours worked (between minimum wage and $77.92) . Service technicians also have the potential to earn commissions at the rate of 16-22% of revenue depending on the revenue category.  Commissions ranging from $10 to $139 can also be earned for selling products and treatments.


At Roto-Rooter, we believe our most significant investment is in our employees.  We prioritize the health and well-being of our team and their families. That’s why we offer an extensive employee benefit package including:

  • Medical insurance with a Prescription Drug Card
  • Accident and Critical Illness Insurance
  • Dental Insurance
  • Vision Insurance
  • Paid Vacation
  • Paid Training
  • Life Insurance
  • Matching 401K Retirement Savings Plan
  • Tuition Reimbursement
  • Profit Sharing

Roto-Rooter offers excellent career paths for military veterans and personnel transitioning to civilian professions. Throughout nearly 100 years in business, we've found that military training and structure are an excellent fit for our company.


We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, religion, color, sex, gender, age, national origin, veteran status, military status, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law.
