Great industry. It's something you grow to be passionate about. Genuinely make a difference for the better. And advancements are very obtainable, atleast through my company. They are also helping me obtain my electrical license and are paying for every certification I obtain. Highly recommend!
Whats the hard parts about the job? I wanna know because I’m interested. When I hear “it’s a hard work job” from people do they mean carrying heavy equipments, working in the hot sun or wha?
I have a interview with a company December 1, here in Texas. They mostly travel a lot. New Mexico, Illinois, and Arkansas. I’m fresh into the trade. 21 yr old apprentice electrician
Can your company give me an offer to work with them as an installer as well I can install Solar and inverter CCTV Electric fence Still yet am jobless Have participated in a lot of Installation here in Nigeria 🇳🇬 I Need a JOB am about to become a Family Man Somebody Help Please
So I’m an electrician with about 2 years left to journeyman but I’ve been interested in learning the solar industry with an offer on the table to join a company as a senior solar tech. I love being an inside wireman but can anyone tell me any advantage I’d have switching over to solar?
My solar electricians make anywhere from 30 to 45 an hour and some companies pay more plus bonuses. It’s definitely worth it for making a 6 figure income at one point but you got to work your way up can’t just get the license and assume you’ll get the senior solar tech positions there’s many men that have otj training which will put them ahead of you even if they don’t have the certifications or journeyman’s license.
Just get your solar or electrical contractor license , do your own jobs. These residential companies want to ride off your license and pay you dirt cheap. Its a slave job I did it when I just got into solar, I was also younger. Now Im on the operations side.. which means keeping big solar power plants running, working on substations etc.
Andrew, There are some great resources on our training page. www.a-rsolar.com/about/solar-jobs-training/ Towards the bottom are some organizations where our staff gets trained.
My name is Jibin Davis from India. I'm working in a solar company but I need to learn more about the solar system. Could you please tell me any vacancy in your area? Or please give any mail id.
@@freedivingheadoffice Residential does suck if you are just a worker but not if youre the contractor. Buddy of mine made about 500k last year. Of course high risk and high reward.
