How many woman do you know that were part of the interview process? I was the only female taking the test
Were you selected?

Bruh. 2yrs. No upload 🫤
Heck yea dude
Where do you find your score?
I’m actually considering this as a career for myself. I’m currently working in a steel mill but i definitely want a job as an electrician. This video was extremely helpful. Thank you
what questions do they ask?
Thank you for sharing your experience 😊
Just had my interview super laid back I was super nervous but tried to be as confident as possible I noticed most people coming out of there interview in 5-10 minutes my interview lasted about 30 minutes they were asking me all sorts of questions and sharing experiences they had and what I should expect. I think it went well but I’m not gonna get my hopes up we shall see what happens
Thank You For this Video. This was Useful
Where’d ya go?
You're never gonna make it
Interview is tomorrow @9:15. Definitely nervous but I’m going to try my best! Thanks for the mental clarity
hey how did it go?
Can anyone help me I am 19 yrs old with no prior experience in electrical trade.I am doing all the possible research and it seems like ibew isn’t accepting applicants at the moment here in NYC does anyone have anything that can help feel stuck…
How is your schooling, going Joining the union? how long are in in school after a 40+ hour work week 2 nights a Week?
How long do i have to wait till they call me or message me after i submit a survey online?
My interview is tomorrow morning, I hope the rest of you have the best of luck.
how was it ?
@teecapone2145 went wonderfully I’ve been working for about a month and a half now. Go in with confidence and pride and you’ll make it.
What’s the whole process like? I just got finished with the PEF. I’m waiting on my email for the aptitude test. I read that a lot of people have been getting rejected because they don’t have atleast 499 hours of construction experience. I thought the apprenticeship is for people with 0 exp
It is for people who have 0 exp but doesn’t mean people with experience won’t apply. Not sure about being rejected for not having exp but considering how the rankings are they might just reject people who would rank way too far below. Not sure tho just my assumption.
ranked #13, lets goooooooooo
New to the channel. Any new or updates coming?
I forget other places than where i live the union is still a bitch to get into
What Local Did you join? Its not 441 is it. I do not mean that in a bad way. I'm just curious.
I dont even have an interview but like, i felt my chest getting crushed for you geez man. Ill make sure to be ready for it
Thanks man the rambling part i really needed to hear. My test is coming up next week and i feel so far from prepared as far as what kind of questions will be on it. 😂 🤞
Gonna call the jatc and see if he’s still there 🤣 he’s in my home local
interview for ibew 269 coming up next week thank you for the insight 🙏🏿
Thankyou for the advice! I just took my aptitude test yesterday for the IBEW Union 332 in Santa Clara! Im hoping this all works out and I get the interview!
Just dropped off my application today brother
@@michaelmew7121 Thats right man! Hoping the best for you!
Anyone think having a red Mohawk will make me be seen negatively during the interview?
Thanks bro appreciate it
40 minutes away from interviewing… SHXTTING BRICKS Right now
How’d it go
Damn I’m so bummed this series didn’t continue. I’m 30 looking to get into the trade and really liked the videos. Hope you’re enjoying it bro!
Hey man! Mad Electrician makes great videos on how to get into the apprenticeship. I have my interview in about 2 weeks so if you have any questions on criteria or the test feel free to message me!
@@soc1022 for sure dude! Yeah his channel has been super helpful as well. Good luck on the interview bro! I’ll definitely reach out if I have some questions. Which local, if you don’t mind sharing?
@@obey_giant Just had my Interview today with local 481!
@@soc1022 hell yeah dude you got this! Is there somewhere I could message you some questions?
I just did the interview this morning and I was super nervous but turned out well. I did do a lot of research from you and some other UA-camrs plus purchased some preparation stuff online. I dressed really well, brought portfolios for the 6 people that were there and they all immediately looked through it. The interview was super short around 10 minutes or less. They asked me about 8 questions I believe. They really liked the wood project I attached to my portfolio and someone commented on the quality of the paper lol. It was some expensive paper from fedex. I appreciated that they paid attention to these things and I noticed they all looked surprised when I went to shake everyone’s hands they must not get that much. All in all I did my best and followed all advice I could. I think I did really well and the questions were super simple no behavioral interview questions. I’ll hear back in a week, the chances are very small 9-10 people selected out of 90 but I just gotta hope for the best!
Sounds promising and prayerfully you're one of the 10. Best of luck on thw journey.
How did it go ?
Out of a ranking system low middle and high for the interview I scored in the middle. Haven’t gotten a call I don’t think I will unless they need a lot of people. I heard if you u don’t score in the upper level you basically shouldn’t hold your breath. I just don’t know what I could’ve done better maybe they could’ve also based it off work experience and other stuff in the end.
Update us brother. How’s it all going???
How long did you wait after your interview to find out you were accepted into the apprenticeship?
Hey i know this is old but i had my interview today and it seemed like it went very good but it only lasted about 6 minutes , but after every question they told me “ that’s a great answer”. So now I’m wondering if a shorter interview is a bad thing or not with the ibew
Did u get in?
What's on the test? Did you have code 50qst and hands on?
Are the test and interview on weekdays or weekends?
Are the aptitude test and interview on workdays or weekends?
Would you say that is an age limit for taking this rout
Is it common to work from heights? Not terribly afraid of them but I’ve also never had anyone spot me lol
I'm looking to apply for the IBEW Apprenticeship here in Illinois but, I'm 51 years old. I'm thinking that I'm too old. Any older Apprentices in your local?? I would like your advice on the subject. Hope all is going well in your journey!
What was your score on the test if you don’t mind?
Please do a second interview video.
Probably a very dumb question. But just want some clarification, When they asked about a previous time you worked in bad working conditions, is that meaning environmental?
got 93 on the interview and 6 rank got my invitation call for bootcamp today got my drug test monday morning yessir cant wait
My dad called em Dics, short for DIagonal Cutter
Just got word that i passed my test, waiting for my interview date
What was on a test ? Was it hands on too?
@@RainToday1 ua-cam.com/video/5dlkQH7duzc/v-deo.htmlsi=HWdql5dmFzME0nBt this video has everything that’s on the test I took it like two days ago and passed because of this video
As a 18 year old who will be graduating high school shortly, is this an option for me or do I have any “prerequisites” before I can apply for this process (schooling, other job, etc)
Gotten have 4k hours i believe
For the questions are u afraid of heights, are u comfortable using tools, and do u have any electrical experience are those yes or no questions or do i have to elaborate on them
