I would start as an installers helper.  Then you can move into service, once you have a little experience.  Don't work for free, you're worth more then that!  What city do you live in?

Iam in hamilton ontario. my recent employer got bought out , so i recieved a package deal which pays me 100% of my full wage until august. I actually was going to work for free just to get some experience. because iam getting money right now, and the training at school was not alot hands on, just all reading and module work, was actually dissappointed in the schooling. thanx for the reply, i have my resume done, but i think i also need a cover letter of interest. but when i talk to employers, that is what i will be applying for a installers helper,,thanx again. any other suggestions are apprecited..
