apprenticeship
Hi guys, i have a speech coming up for school and ill be talking about apprenticeship and how hard it is to find one, mainly in the automotive industry (coming from personal experience and other friends). I worked in the industry for almost 3 years and failed in finding anyone who would apprentice me for the first year. So just wondering if anyone else had the same problem and share your experience. Thanks!
hope this made sense.

I'm in the same boat, and yes it is hard to find an apprenticeship. I guess it's just luck if you get sponsored, haahaa.
