Understanding the process:

You’ll meet with Manpower first, then if selected to move forward we will schedule an in-person interview with a hiring manager at the mill. If you’re a match, turnaround is typically fast. We’ll discuss your start date — ASAP is great, but we can accommodate a reasonable notice period too for those that are currently employed elsewhere.
