I'm at college just missing the on site experience, an apprenticeship is probably my best bet.

So I have a few questions?

- is it possible at the age of 24?
- how long is an apprenticeship?
- would I get payed?
- how would I get one?

Thanks

Be helpfull to know where you are dale, someone may be interested where you are.
As for pay, it depends on the boss, minimum wage at 24 , but probably under as you are not earning the bloke owt, just in the way really , and will probably scarper when you think you know it all.
Now saying that, I have a lad who started with me at 19, I told him he gets paid crap until his time is served(4 years, he stuck with it threw thick and thin, it's not easy .
He is still with me at 30, he gets a good wage,holiday pay, sick pay(not that he is ever off sick) a van, and a iPhone.
Some lads want to learn, and learn proper, some just wanna learn the basics and try it in the big bad world, which one is thou ;)
