HYG:
A two year apprentice? which has the superb incentive of working for £7.50 or less for that time, to then go onto the massive £8 odd they pay .
It is a weeks course, and most decent firms give new passes a start and the same money as long term guys …The job details say the apprenticeship is for 12 months - I was then assuming they would at least expect the person to remain for another 12 months.
As some post on here, that they cannot get work on artics due to the two year experience issue, I was thinking for that reason alone it might work for some.
I know it depends on the area but I think the experience issue is not the problem it was. I passed last year and applied for 5 jobs in the first couple of weeks and was offered 3!
I am not going to say they were the best (from what I heard since 1 was dire) but they are a start. I have now got 6 months experience and have far more options.
