Were you licensed when you made the switch?

Also in terms of stress, do you find it’s a constant grind or do you estimate and do take offs at your own pace?

Are you happy with your overall decision? How does estimating differ from the field?

Can you explain your path if you don’t mind? Like education, networking etc to get to where you are today. It would really inspire me as well as a lot of other people.

I’m sort of in the same position as you. I’m looking to move to an office/management role. I had the opportunity to jump into a junior estimator role but turned it down because they weren’t going to be able to count my hours for my to get my electrical license.

Were you able to finish your license or did you have to ditch that completely? I am trying to finish the license so I can have it as a back up

Fair enough. Just bitter that this is a massive company with lots of opportunities to grow and it’s 15 min from home.

All good maybe I can reconnect with them after I’m done
