Got an interview on monday for an electrician apprenteship.
Been to one for college before, but never to an employer. Should I wear a suit for it?

Yes suit white shirt & a tie, make sure your shoes are polished too..............its the 1st few seconds that count & if you walk in looking like a prick or someone that hasnt made an effort then that will be what they remember of you!!

im applying for electricians apprenticeships too, they are well hard to find. I wear a suit to an interview, makes you look smart and keen. Good look getting an apprenticeship mate

i have a 3 week trial at a firm without having an interview or sending them a CV. Apparently he prefers to see his employees practically now on paper which is cool.
im not going to be an apprentice officially though, i'll be an electricians mate but get 1 day a week day release.
I'll be working 5:45 till 9 apparently including travel. Its going to kill me coming straight out of school.
Still i'm very happy as electricians vacancy's have been hard to come by recently
