Hi
I was recently told by my tutor that Ive passed my C&G 2330 level 3 and in the process have became a fully qualified electrician. It wasw a long 3 years and im glad I saw it through as at times it was tough. Unfortunately I started the course as the recession was kicking in and so had to work for free as an apprentice with a one man band. I did aquire a few tools along the way and the odd £20 here and there but prdominently I worked for free takeing the view that at least I was gaining valuable knoledge. I made up for this by working in the evening at a hospital as a porter and at the weekends so that I at least had some money to pay my way. The problem is I thought once I was in this position I would be able to find a larger elecrtrical comapny to work for that did comercial and domestic installations so that I could do private jobs at the weekedns and continue to learn my trade until I felt I was ready to go it alone. ( I had a plan of 2 years). the thing is however the internet is not throwing up that many opportunitys and I was wondering how you guys go about finding electrical companies that are recruiting and how you got your jobs. Typeing in electricians in the area I live is not very fruitfull. Can anyone give me some advice so I can start to earn some good money.
