I Qualified a few weeks ago and only just realized how difficult it actually is to find a job out here, ArcelorMittal is currently going through a 189 process, meaning approximately 1500 positions are being cut, including the one I was supposed to be appointed in. I'm willing to do anything in the mechanical field to gain experience, I also have decent experience as an IT technician (worked as a techy for a year before starting my apprenticeship), but unfortunately never did my A+/N+.
