Summary
Thomas Nagy and Paul Meenan talk about how to be a good apprentice and make the most of your opportunity. Tom and Paul discuss their all-time worst and best apprentices and what made them so bad or good. They reflect on their own experiences as apprentices and also give insight into how they work with apprentices and help them find success and a career path in Electrical. Hugo Helms, a former apprentice who qualified in 2023 joins the discussion to give a perspective on the life lessons around conduct that were lacking when he was on his journey to become qualified.
