About The Position

CBRE is recruiting candidates for Meta’s sponsored Level Up Fiber Technician Pathway, a four-week paid, full-time training program held at purpose-built training locations in Columbus or Indianapolis. The program prepares participants for a permanent, full-time Fiber Installer role at a Meta Data Center after successful completion. Training starts October 12, with new classes starting weekly. Local participants may commute daily; non-local participants receive company-paid housing, travel, and food for the duration of training. Travel expenses are covered, and participants receive a daily per diem throughout training. The training rate is $25.00 per hour.

No prior experience is required; the program teaches the skills needed for the role. Participants learn to install, test, terminate, label, and document fiber-optic cabling; pull low-voltage cables through conduits, ceilings, and pathways; interpret floor plans, port maps, and telecom drawings; install cable-support and grounding systems; and patch, label, and barcode network equipment. Work is hands-on and safety-focused, alongside experienced technicians.

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship, now or in the future. The hiring process includes a 10-panel drug screening, including THC testing, a physical assessment, and a criminal background check. CBRE states that it does not use AI to make hiring decisions and asks candidates to disclose any AI use during the application or interview process.
