I have decided I want a career change

[matey123]

Hello people,

Basically I am 24 years old and currently a financial adviser, I've thought about it long and hard if it's something that I want to do in the long run and it's not, I find the office jobs very boring. Rolling on, my father is a property developer, and introduced me to electrics, the very basics, wiring and fitting sockets etc.

I enjoy the work, I like getting my hands dirty lol. So in order to go down the domestic/commercial route, would I have to take the 2365 level 2 and 3 course. Also would I have to take any additional qualifications after?

Any help would be appreciated? i.e. which route to go down for beginners and also I don't mind paying ££££ for fast track courses as long as it's the right qualification.


Thanks

You will need your suit soon enough tel, best to be buried in it and attend the heavenly gates dressed smart.

Well you cannot be much cop then, my nephew does the exact same job and earns a fortune, drives a 70K range rover and wears nice suits, time to think about what your doing wrong IMO.

lol money isn't the issue, and well people younger than me have nice suits/designer gear and a rolex and they are only on minimum wage.
