My son in law is looking for a new job and has a couple of leads, 1 at Amtrak and 1 at Pepsico/Gatorade.....he is kind of concerned because his buddy who referred him is still a newer guy at Amtrak and s-i-l said it is hard to get on without a referral from someone inside. He has been in landscaping/snow removal/lawn tech for the last 8-10 years and he just wants out of it and something more secure. He is a quick learner, no drugs, and shows up everyday.
He has mentioned trying to get on as an apprentice in one of the skilled trade unions....pipe fitter, electricians and he even mentioned HVAC school. He needs to make 16-18 an hour minimum to start, can a guy make that as an apprentice in any of them trades? Any thoughts or advice on getting in a union job?
I can help him in Laborers Union....he was a drywall finisher for several years, don't think he is interested in it again, unless he has to.
Thanks guys!
