    Well spoken, solid interview. Ironworking isn't for everyone. One thing for sure is that it's unique, camaraderie of the men is real. Retired 387/Atlanta

    To get into the Ironworkers apprenticeship program they have a guy in front of you with his hands out and one hand the palm is open and the other hand the palm is closed and they ask you which hand is the nut in

      I'm humble and honest enough to admit that I'm pretty dumb, never been the type for school or book smarts. I'm 27 now and after a decade of working crap jobs making peanuts, pushing myself working hard and getting nowhere just being dumped with more work by the boss with nothing in return, I'm really set on getting a real career that I can some day raise a family with. I was looking at IBEW but the math aptitude test is killing me. Glad I found ironworkers, hope I get in and make something out of myself.

    Being an office guy is not for everyone and there is far too much emphasis on them. Any one can go too work, but it takes a real “ Man”’too become a “Journeymen “

    Anyone have experience getting started with an apprenticeship in Southern California? How hard is it to get in, is it competitive or you basically apply, meet the requirements, get interviewed and you're set? Thanks

      I just started my apprenticeship, it wasn't hard to get in, it's all about what you know and your experience, they prefer experienced people but they're more then happy to train whoever doesn't have experience.
      I lucked out, I didn't get picked the first time but someone ended up dropping out and I was emailed about the job

      It really depends on the Local/area. Some Locals really need apprentices. Just ask around. I started in '72, was asked "who are you related too" a lot. Different times. Good luck
