I recently attended a hiring event for an electrical apprenticeship with a non-union company. i did the whole math exam thing & I've already received the background check paperwork, so I think I'm moving through the hiring process.

The more I've thought about it, though, the more I realize I might be a better fit for some of the company's office positions instead of field work. I'm interested in roles like Contract Specialist, Procurement Specialist, Safety Manager (or Safety Coordinator), or Technical Recruiter. was wondering if there is a trainee position for those roles.

& My concern is whether bringing this up now would hurt my chances. Would the company appreciate knowing where my interests really are, or would they see it as me no longer being committed to the apprenticeship and potentially withdraw my offer? Is there usually any flexibility to move into office roles early on, or do companies generally expect you to stick with the position you originally applied for?
