Get Ready Interview questions will vary somewhat, depending on whether you're looking for a union apprenticeship or a nonunion job. Hobbies that involve working with your hands or being outside and participating in sports are good signs to interviewers. Interviewers will be looking for social skills, manual dexterity, math and reading abilities. As an electrician, you need to be a team player but also know how to solve problems with people of different backgrounds.
Rotations are a great way to gain experience in varied settings.
If you get along well with this person, you could have a better chance at getting the job. Union-sponsored apprentice jobs will have very clear pay structures. Nonunion jobs can be all over the map, and you could easily get stuck in the lowest paying jobs unless you negotiate an agreement up front. Benefits will vary from union to nonunion jobs. Usually, you get health and disability, sometimes vacation and sick pay.
