I did it. Best thing I could have done. So much better to get paid to go to school than to go into debt.

Accountant: What if we train them and they leave?
Finance: What if we don’t train them and they stay?

This is amazing how this techs take new apprentices under their wings and teach them, and give them the apportunity to become a technician, not like other places,, how us apprentices are going to learn when there are auto shops that don't give us the apportunity to develope our skills and show them that we can, if they teach us and give us time, But is how it is, its Fucked up they expect us to know everything right out of school,,, i wish this shop were in NYC / sigh .

I know it’s a old video but yeah absolutely difficult to get a apprentice right now in Houston and I see a lot of dealerships with signs saying now hiring lol I know because I’m have been trying to get in

I have been working as a apprentice for over a year. I have learned nothing but got shit from my boss all the time. I will never recommend any person to become a auto apprentice. It sucks.

[@evanm9026]

You must suck.

[@luisvilla799]

At a strealership never same here never learned shit at all

[@user-se6ki9tx2f]

Well here in Atlanta don't wanna hire you as an apprentice 😐 so much the envy and insecurities from these experts 😴

[@marthasmadman]

That’s because it’s in the south and nobody gives a shit about anyone

[@diffy9036]

Well, I called Employment Ontario and the answer was that I should go by myself and find somebody who'd like to hire me as an apprentice!! So calling EO didn't really help! :(

I am a current bicycle mechanic. I learn best with my hands and am quite mechanically inclined. Made a mistake of going to college and getting four year degree and no solid job after. Mechanics i feel is still my calling. What advice would you tell a mid 20s year old? start a path to be a journeyman? ASE certification? go back to school or a local JC that offers a trade program? Im doing ok now but know I want to do more.

Dealerships and truck stops are hiring lube technicians all the time. Dealerships for cars. Truck stops for diesel.

Good video guys

[@anthonykane2454]

Queston, Are technichians paid in your shop, by the clock hour or on commission (flagged hours)?

[@ronnytotten9292]

Good question unanswered

[@JDuna]

It all depends on the shop

[@jacksjournal9464]

I have completed my automotive course in India and I live in India, can I apply for an apprenticeship training in Canada without job offer?

[@Michael-uo4jj]

you'll probably need a work visa or actually get housing in Canada let alone i have no idea if that automotive course would count/creditablity in Canada, apprenticeship training is done by the college of trades and the mechanic/shop willing to teach you and hire you

[@hunkydude322]

Well, if some of these shops have the time to teach someone the trade go for it, but lots of shops don't have the time to teach, so in my opinion if you want to learn this trade go to a vocational school if you can and learn there, and who knows maybe you'll want to start your own shop and specialize in on or to topics on a car cause it's impossible to know everything on a car.

[@danstewart42]

[@Comm0ut]

Mechanics and related trades are MENTORING cultures where apprenticeship is ideal.
