Im 18 in FL and I’ve working with my dad in his remodeling company since I graduated high school a couple months ago. I’m starting college now for my associates in building construction. I’m planning on getting my OSHA 30, learn procore, blue beam, and excel, as well as get a respectable construction management certification if necessary, all while being 18 working for my dad and in college. If I do all these things and have all that in my resume, could I get hired as a field or project engineer despite only being 18-19?

I’m about to start college soon in Florida to get a associates in building construction and my original plan was to do that and during those 2 years as well as after if necessary, do an internship, work with my dad in his remodeling company which I’m currently doing, get my osha 30, so by the time I graduate my college with my associates I can get hired as a PE or assistant super or something like that, work as that for 2 years, completing the 2 year college and 2 year supervisory work experience requirement to get my gc license. But, working for my dads company, long story but through a good connection we have with the owner of the apartment building company we remodel apartments for, he said he’ll have his son (which is a gc) sign off my experience once I graduate college so I can get my license.

basically my question is for anyone knowledgeable on the topic of having a gc sign off your experience, I know it’s technically not legal or whatever word you want to use but anyone that knows abt this can give me some input it would be appreciated, like does that work? Does it happen a lot like is it very possible? things like that.
