Apprentices

[Webman176]

Think I will check them out. Just with no college fee's as passed the courses I thought it may have been easier. Still the search continues haha.. I'm in Guildford if any1 know a company looking for an apprentice

I tried JTL when I was at college a few years ago, I would have been about 26 at the time; JTL wouldn't do anything for me because of my age.
Knowing my luck though they've probably moved the goalposts and they'll bend over backwards to help you now.

FIRM i WORKER WITH HAD 6 apprentices 4 in 4th yr 2 in 2nd
of the 4 Id employ 2 of them when their time was out
no1 great guy enjoys a good time away from work BUT from clearing out van,shop ect to dealing with store manager Id never have a problem with him reliable ect ect
no2 great guy bit irratic away from work home life was a bit of a turmoil n caused him a few problems during his first 2 years then he "tobered up " a bit n realy knuckled down Never late even when traveling 2hrs from home to get picked up ALLWAYS on the first train Great worker and clients liked his cheeky chappy outlook
no3 Great knowlage but "my mum says" My dad says" every time he was asked to do something Wouldnt travel to meet me even reporting to the boss one time I dropped him off n told him to get the train (Back fired as only thing gaffer said was "WHY are you picking him up he should be meeting you!!!"
no4 waste of space needed a right good boot up the jacksie
of the 2nd years 1 both were great guys and good at college BUT one had an aptitude on him that realy put people off him and dealing with clients wasnt his best thing
ITS pot luck realy as my no2 could have been sacked and lost to the trade ( he nearly was as he couldnt get a start after time out ) but he was given the chance and turned himself arround

I'm based in manchester. I'm 24 have use of a van (or transport) just completed my first year of a three year adult learners course to gain level 3, I just feel I need to be in the industry more hands-on so I can further my knowledge, 1 day a week for me is not enough.

I just need to be given a chance of an apprenticeship and if I did they would not regret it. I'm registered with JTL and in the process of registering with Skills Solutions.

If you are searching for a fully dedicated apprentice in the Cheshire/Derbyshire and surrounding areas (willing to travel) then look no further, PM me to discuss further,

Forgot to mention I will be willing to work for apprentice wages and pay for my course fees and exams, believe you me I need and want this more than anything.

Thanks Philip

I did a similar thing that you want to do. Only difference I done it for free. Only way I could get a job. My first collage was no help, my second really did help me through. It was a hard slog but worth the effort. Hope you get a job

I'm in a similar boat - also 24 in Manchester actually - but no driving licence, which I'll need the work in order to afford. Hope it goes well for you and I'll probably be registering with JTL this week.

I just looked into JTL and it does look good lots of places in my area so I'm sure there will be some in yours.. Unfortunately they only allow up to 25 year olds to apply. (I'm 29) Because they won't get government funding for college, even though I am about to finish my 3rd year! It sucks.. Hope u guys have more luck

A few of us tried at our local college and the cut off age is 24, I have found the entry on the site, however given the current climate they may well up the age limit..
JTL training - electrical, plumbing and engineering Advanced Apprenticeships.

The website doesn't let me even register because of my age. The only way I possibly could is to phone them! May try and ask, worth a go.
