As another scholastic year begins at MCAST, and students start to think about their new course and the way it will lead them to their preferred career, it is important to spare a moment to consider apprenticeships. An apprenticeship is an investment in the future employability of a student who, upon graduating, will be competing for jobs with fellow students as well as experienced workers looking for a change.
Finding a job is hard, finding a career is harder. A student needs to have sufficient credentials to be hired. Often, the Diploma would not suffice as many other students would have similar Diplomas. Being able to include vital experience gained during apprenticeships can make a potential candidate stand out from the rest of the applications.
The type of apprenticeship also matters. Being an apprentice where you do solely odd jobs such as clearing up or only observe and never participate, will not give you the necessary skills or experience which will advance your personal development.
Applying for an apprenticeship with FIN has several advantages:
1. Gain experience and practice working in various industries
FIN has been a supplier of automated components and machines in Malta for over 3 years. Our clients range drastically in industry; from waste management, to medical equipment, from food and beverage makers to carpenters. This experience will provide you as an apprentice with an unparalleled opportunity to learn how many different automated machines work.
2. Our suppliers are world leaders of automation components
Not only would you have easy access to a wide range of electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic and mechanical components for you to try and use in your daily tasks, you will also be able to get detailed information and learn more about these components directly from their manufacturers.
3. You will form part of a young and dynamic team
No two days are quite the same at FIN. The challenges are many, the pressure is high, but the satisfaction is great. Being part of a team who design, manufacture and program fully automated machines is a great experience for any apprentice.
