[QUOTE="nsalam, post: 547345, member: 34857"] I was working as a web developer for 9 years before retraining as an electrician. I first went night school and completed my level 2 & 3 City and guilds. I then obtained my cscs and ecs cards. The most challenging asking was finding work, i feel it’s more experience than age and if you don’t have your nvq and am2 I think it makes it harder. Currently I am working for free under an electrician 2 days a week and this added experience has gotten me interviews now with electrical jobs. Hopefully I will be in a paid job soon as my next step is to complete my nvq, 18th and am2. I’ve had to work for free just to get through the door and I hope this ain’t the same for everyone’s journey but at times it needs to be done. I’m 34 years old [/QUOTE]
