CarFreak88 Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) How many people in the final 30 get a job? 30 out of 550 odd got a job they say normally half that stay on the full 4 years... the money in the first year is poo 160 per week but by the 4th year its closer to 400 per week, eventually i would love to move onto custom car bodies and show cars. the tests were maths, english and mechanical comprehension and weird stuff? thanks for the replies guys Edited May 5, 2008 by CarFreak88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarFreak88 Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 Where do you find information and opportunities for jobs like these? i went to my local connextions as im 19 they can still help, they suggested it to me after i told them what sort of things i liked doing, i loved art and tech in school so we came to fabrication, i did consider mechanic. But im sure the internet would be a good source of information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
