Anyone looking for an apprentice cabinetmaker/ joiner in Auckland?

Yes, I have worked with a lot of handtools and machines used for joinery and cabinetmaking. I can provide pics of some of my work if anyone requires them as well.

Get yourself a photo album and put the good photos in there. This simple display is worth a thousand words when you knock on a prospective employers door. Have a brief CV with you as well.

Finding a decent employer shouldn't be too hard if you have good basic woodworking skills! Just make it clear that you are keen to do an apprenticeship and become fully qualified.
Once with an employer, either you or your employer will need to contact JITO (Joinery Industry Training Organisation-0800 10 55 88) and they will look after you. A damn good bunch of people there and they are looking after your future!

Also have a look at www.jito.org.nz as this site will give you a good idea of what happens along the way.
