Hey all, im 5 months away from doing a pre-vocational in electronics, it will cover the basics of electronics and give work experience which i am looking foward. But lately i have been looking threw the net and job search websites looking for a suitable career to take on after my course, or something to work towards in the near future.
I am quite interested in Refridgeration and Air con, but it dosent seem to pay that well compared to other areas of electronics even though i have been told it pays quite well by people i work with. On every site that i have looked at that compares the median wage for all different careers, HVAC technicians median is always rellatively low compared to all the others.
i was also looking at lift mechanics, althought alot of it seems to involve alot more than just electronics which is fine with me because it looks like it pays very well. But the industry seems very difficult to get into, although companys like Otis and KONE were advertising on australian job search sites for electrical technicians, and it stated there is no need for previous experience with elevators but it was an advantage. Coming to my point on this question, what would be a good area of electronics to get into before being a lift mechanic, im not sure if this makes any sence but im sure some of you could make something of it.
I was also wondering what kind of work an industrial electrician would do because on the job search engines i was looking threw, indutrial electricians seem to get paid very well some job offerings were $36 per hour (AUS Dollar)
and they weren't in mines or anything stupid. I was just wondering what the work conditions would be like for an industrial electrician because they get paid so good there must be a catch.
im sorry if this post confused you and was a waste of your time, as i don't know to much about the whole electronics industry yet, but im just very interested.
Thanks
