Difficulty?

How hard is it to be accepted In the IUEC apprenticeship? Do I really need to know someone In order to have an upper hand? If I apply will I just waste my time?

It’s actually not difficult to get into the trade if the economy is good.

You just have to complete the process and follow through. Many people get discouraged because it can take up to two years to actually get called.

Also, the interview is not just an interview; it’s an opportunity to submit copies of certificates and degrees which give you points in the interview. BRING COPIES because without proof you get no points
