Default After an automotive job/apprenticeship.

May be in wrong place and probably no one interested but i'm gonna throw it out there anyway.

I am after an apprenticeship in something performance orientated or heavy plant. Not really after the basic servicing of a normal light auto mechanic. Am after either plant mechanic or something more performance based.

Qualifications/Education:
- Year 12 HSC (General English, General Maths, Metals and Engineering,
Industrial Technology, Information Technology)
- Certificate I in Light Automotive at TAFE in Muswellbrook.
- Certificate II in Light Automotive at TAFE in Muswellbrook.
- ACCESS Pre-apprenticeship program for Auto Fabrication at muswellbrook
TAFE (Cert III Light Automotive and Cert III Metals and Engineering)
- Workcover OH&S General Induction for construction.

Keen interest in cars, bikes and anything mechanical. Not afraid to get in there and have a go.

If anyone here knows anyone with positions vacant that would be awesome.

I'm in the hunter region but also can go to Port Macquarie area
