Mark hi Mark, can i offer a very warm welcome to this site, from the courses you have taken i'd say your in with a very good chance. when taking on a 'newbee' for any employer usually means investing a lot of cost and time into the basic training, you have already gone some way in reducing this barrier. you could punt around the 'big boys'. as if they have any sense imo they would snap you up. i don't know what wage rate would be applied, but i do hope you get many offers of work. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

isecurit Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Hi Mark I would suggest you got to the likes of //.Large National Installer.// or Chubb as they can afford to carry somone whilst training. Smaller companies will struggle, I have been in the alarm industry for 15 years now and if you realy want my opinion i would say find something better, the pay is good doing this but a lot of the companies are sharks will rip you off as look at you and thet includes //.Large National Installer.// where i used to work. I you are still interested then i would follow the CCTV rought as is easier and more money in it. Good Luck Hello Everyone...My name is Mark, im 24, due to get out of the army in may...
