Apprenticeship opportunities
With our country still officially being in recession, the number of apprentices being taken on in the construction industry has fallen by 30% in the previous two years. At present there are very few opportunities in the UK for young people to train as bricklayers. There are signs that the construction industry will grow slightly in 2013, which hopefully may lead to a few more apprentices being taken on in the following year.
With a number of young people struggling to find work in our country, those who are keen and interested in following a career in the construction industry are being offered a fantastic opportunity to train, live and work in Germany. There is a huge recruitment drive in Germany, due to the fact that they have a shortage of young people in the country. Young people from the UK are being offered excellent wages, travel expenses and German language lessons, in return for accepting a 3 year apprenticeship in the country.
