VW enthusiast looking for an apprenticeship
Hi Im Toby
Im hoping to start an apprenticeship next year and It would be great if it involved Volkswagens. I live in the Blue Mountains, NSW and would be
willing to travel to most places in Western Sydney. I am completing the HSC this year and I am also gaining a certificate II in Metal &
Engineering. I am interested in all types of apprenticeships so if you need an apprentice next year leave a message.
Thanks, Uncle Toby.

Na, Im not doing Design and Tech. In Metal & Engineering we have mainly been repairing things around the school and making security windows.
We have just started work on a trailer for the school band. The roof was rusted through so we are making a new sloped roof so the water runs off,
unlike before where it just pooled up on top.

Good one Toby , hope you find something dude , as if this is anything to go by you have plenty of initiative as plenty of the VW shops around OZ all
look here sooner or later and i for one would be more than willing to help out someone that came to me than having to find someone that was
interested.
Sorry we do not have an opening in our shop at the moment but i will keep you in mind should we need someone , but the only thing is of coarse is that
we are in Sunny Brisbane.

zjm, I tried to apply for a RailCorp apprenticeship last night but the site wasn't working for me, It works now so I will probably apply now. I have
also applied for an apprenticeship with integral energy. But, I still really would like to work with VW's. Other apprenticeships would be great too,
so if you need an apprentice, post away.
Thanks for your help

maybe if I don't get a reply
You started off ok, forget the "maybe" bit and get on with your original attack.
