Looking for work experience (domestic installer)

[Balthazar Pawlowski]

Hey guys. I am currently looking for work experience in and around the Bromley/Kent area. I have just completed my Part P and my 17th edition a month ago as well as C&G 2392 inspection and testing but the domestic electrical installer whom I was meant to be shadowing and learning from has not returned my calls.
I am motivated hard working and a quick learner but it impossible to find any sort of work without being NICEIC registered, which can't happen unless I'm working in the right environment. It's a vicious circle.
I am only asking for 2-3 days a week although more would be preferable. Please give me a chance to gain my accreditation. I am truly desperate. No job on site will be too degrading or humiliating so long as you are willing to teach
All the best
Balthazar

The statement above is rather negative

You have done some training for the electrical trade,therefore you have advantage over those having none
Maybe find out off your local council or housing associations who they have awarded wiring contracts to recently
Get in touch with those firms,preferably direct on site and sell yourself
These firms do not only engage the fully trained,they usually have less responsible positions to fill
Do you have a ecs site card,if not it may be worthwhile obtaining one
