Automotive Apprenticeships - Good Quality Recommendations

[RetroCosworth]

Hi all,

I've applied to many Automotive Manufacture Apprenticeships with manufactures such as VW,Honda, Jeep and BMW to name but a few.

How do apprenticeships with companies such as 'Kwik Fit' and 'Nationwide Crash Repair' compare?

Also, can you recommend me some more apprenticeships avaliable for a petrolhead.

Thanks

Charlie

Apprentices are a thing of the past and not needed ,what wker decided that??, that is unless you`re trying to impress Lord short arse Sugar of Clapton( fking hell I played footy at Clapton Orient one time).
It`s now IVQ level 1/2 and 3 so after 3 years you may be able to handle a broom in a responsible manner

Seeing as you own your own restoration and specialist perhaps you could guide me in the right direction.

Which means "give me a job".

Evening Ben.

To be fair, he does have some vacancies according to his PH threads.

I know, and I'm kicking myself that I have three years of university to get through before I can apply for one!

Geography - sat some scholarship papers and won an unconditional from Aberystwyth Uni. I know the area well, and it's not far from the Evo Triangle...

Goodluck with it Ben.

I gather it's closeness to Evo Triangle made it a must?

Its a tow way thing .You need make the approach and offer the specialists some kind of committment in return for training. Most of us run small businesses so teaching someone who fks off is a waste of everybodys time. Long term committment benefits all and you may well be offered a long term job at the end of it, if you prove your worth.
