      Entry Level

      "The most challenging aspect of my apprenticeship was learning all of the different codes and regulations. There is a lot to learn! I took my work home quite often, and studied guides online, to give me a leg up."

      Answer Example

      "Wiring issues on an old house, hands down, was the most challenging task I faced as an apprentice. There were some weathering issues and different types of wiring, like aluminum. I learned how dangerous those issues could be when I almost started a fire. I used to be intimidated about doing repairs with old wires because of the hazards, but after getting more familiar with the precautions, I no longer feel that way."
