 If you have any additional questions, please contact
Tammy Tupps at
ttupps@knoxbar.org or (865) 522-6522. 


Our placement numbers have been staggering!  Due to the number of contracts and subsequent placements, it is too difficult to maintain a list of the job openings available through our service on this website.  There are numerous positions currently available for support staff.  Once you complete your application, contact Tammy Tupps at 522-6522 and arrange a time to come in for your testing.  At that time, you will be notified of all of the current job openings available through our service.
