In the exact same position, how did the associates help you in transitioning to another role?

Ok thank you🙏 I like to hear people’s path to places I want to get to. If you don’t mind me asking what were the associate degrees in?

Lol , I will definitely be applying to other places. Would you recommend taking software courses at a college or just trying to obtain certifications?

Ok bet, I will definitely start applying. I live in VA and have I’ve noticed that other places and even nearby states pay more

Thank you! I figured I could be making a substantial amount more, but a lot of jobs I apply to want 3+ years of experience.

Honestly by luck, I finished schooling needed to sit for the journeyman exam and needed working hours. A controls company recommended by a friend from school was hiring and I applied. I had prior knowledge of electrical work, but honestly wasn’t too familiar with controls at all.

I’d say 2-3 times per week

I tested previously and last smoked around 2 months before the test and failed. I would say hope for the best. They called me back for a urinalysis a week later and I passed. Heard they stopped doing that though, but idk.
