Hey, NJ local question, maybe same for any local?
Im doing the career change into ironworker from long days/longer years in food industry, yall want despair look for work in food haha,,, and self taught myself sum welding, my question is ive been doing the structural 3g,4g with flux and stick and feel ready to go test but this would be on my dime and im super tight with loot resta this year. What is good to bring to the table to show my value?
would it matter to bring in certificates or should I just be ready to burn on the spot? Trail by fire is fine for me, same as it ever was
Id be ready to test anyways but cannot burn money, would the cert put me in a better pool? I did get the Osha 10 online but should I also go for the 30? Im fine starting at bottom but id want to apply myself and if possible knock off some apprenticeship periods if at all possible. Grateful for any advice, thank you
