"If I were in charge of choosing the candidate for this apprenticeship, I would look for someone with a safety-first mentality and positive disposition. I would also look for someone, like myself, who is well organized. There are many moving parts in electrical projects, so those being a fast learner would be especially important."

"If I were hiring, I would choose someone highly analytical but still able to see the big picture and think in a safety-first mentality. I am very safety conscious and able to look at the entire project rather than being hyper-focused on my goals at the moment."
