Someone once told me to get into electrician roles you should start young. Sad bc I would totally love to leave IT for good & study to become an electrician, but apparently I’m “too old” to start 🤷🏼♀️
It’s hard to get an apprenticeship to become one in Australia after your mid twenties. I’ve heard it’s because your pay has to be a fair bit higher than the kids just out of school, so they’d rather train a teenager.

That’s interesting! Yes, in the USA, I guess it’s early twenties to start an apprenticeship program.
