Olaf 3317 Report post Posted September 24, 2015 awesome, Glenn. good on you for making time for this. I recall finding work experience with an auto electrician back when I was in the 4th form. 2 days of working in their workshop, reconditioning starter motors and alternators, getting the smoko, learning a bit about working in a workplace! Invaluable experience, and they bought me lunch to boot. I didn't end up training as an auto-sparks, though it gave me insight into that job. ++ Kudos. I trust you attract someone who appreciates the opportunity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gjm 3258 Report post Posted September 24, 2015 I'm probably a teensy bit older than the sort of person you're looking for but if I could get time off, I'd be there like a shot. My daughter is on holiday and would enjoy it, but doesn't have a license. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacko 2156 Report post Posted September 24, 2015 Agreed, I did work experience for a year with a Toyota dealership, awesome opportunity and learnt a bunch. Have you rung up a local high school? One of the tech class teachers may be able to point you at someone suitable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 544 Report post Posted September 26, 2015 Try a Winz work broker. There are some really good ones in Auckland and quite a number of young people on the books so to speak. Some may just lack the self confidence to get into their first job. In my pervious role we'd get to hear many success stories for the young ones that just needed that first door opened.
