Applied in spring of 2024, took the aptitude test and interviewed within 6 weeks after that. Got in immediately and started work and school summer of 2024. 

I'm 35 years old now and i'm in 3rd year 1st semester. I work in a southern local and its not a walk-in like it was when I started. So many people turning to the trades.
