what is the most efficient way to becoming an electrician in NYC?
I am 22, have H.S. Diploma and live in NYC(Queens). I have absolutely no experience in this field, no studies but I want to learn. Trade school (if so, which?) or apprentice( if so, how do I get started considering I have no background of it at all?) Thank you! (P.S. how much should I expect to earn in apprenticeship for example and also when I am a certified electrician? )Thx again!
My Fiance’ is going to become an electrician, he’s going to our local Vo-Tech campus to become a certified electrician. Depending on what kind of job you get will vary your salary.Like around here we have coal mines or electric companies such as AEP, Television and Internet, etc. There’s a lot of job opportunities for you if you do decide to become an electrician.
If you want to apprentice, you have to find an electrical field that is hiring and work under a Certified Electrician, but to do so you may have to work with the company a while and show them you’re dedicated.
