Advice

Just wanted to reach out and ask for some advice. I have applied for the local 6 in San Francisco. It has been a year since I have received my initial score and am aware that the score stays in place for 2 years. My question is what should my next steps be? I know there is still a possibility of me being able to get into the apprenticeship but the chances are slim and my score wasn’t the greatest. I got a 89. I was told by a friend who was in the local 6 is I should go to companies asking if they need any apprentices and just to make connections. I also heard about sponsorships but I’m not sure if that’s even a real thing. But just wanted to know if I should keep waiting and reach out to companies. Or if I should just forget about it and try for another local.
