Rydo Blackman you make an incredibly good point sir. The only thing I would say is that I’m fairly sure you yourself was an apprentice at some point and was given an opportunity to show your skill set. I got so many things wrong as an apprentice but was extremely lucky to have an amazing boss. We need more Sparky’s coming in as there’s a huge deficit as more electricians are retiring then new apprentices are coming in, but fully respect your opinion. Stay safe buddy

Take him on mate.it’s hard enough trying to get an apprenticeship as it is so if he really wants it take him on

Congrat to the lad for being on the ball we need more people like Oscar willing to start young and loves learning

Nick you really raised the bar on this I am so happy all of you are giving chances to the younger generation. As Adam is transitioning out to work with you you should get a second apprentice it would be great if it could be a young lady - more female sparks would be give a strong signal for the younger generation.

Seems like a great young lad. Well done Oscar. I’d give him a start. 👏

Fantastic content as always, nice to see you taking the time on giving a youngster a taste of things to come, hope he goes on and completes the training

What a good lad, can tell he is very keen.

Cracking video, I think you should take him on, he seems to have the right attitude and work ethics.

He definitely has what it takes to be an apprentice electrician. He will never be out of work with the future growth in ev charging etc.

I have been telling you that for ages you won’t regret it and it will ease the burden on you and you are passing the knowledge on to the next generation. Once he becomes competent you can take on a bit more work. Be patient the young can assume things clear directions from you will help, and just put yourself in their position. Remember what you were like at that age.

Love the film noir counterposition between you and the apprentice love the safe isolation teach, lock out and tag out at CU top man...fantastic. Just teach him also about ensuring good contact on conductor points, and ghost voltages and eddys and to be able to discern when it’s actually live or not. Make sure he is also taking the time to do the reading and learning outside of the workplace.

Ah bless, nice kid! He’ll do well with you. Wish I did my apprenticeship with someone like you. You should definitely share your knowledge. And you’ll also benefit when he’s crawling through the attics and carrying your tools, and tidying up after you. And before you know it, he’ll be running rings around you.

Well done Oscar, show us oldies that young people work hard. Well done Jordan, it is so important to give the next generation a chance in these horrific times.

Spot on. He aced it from what we seen, he was good on the camera

that's great.everyone needs a chance.well done.loads of respect.

Oscar, much respect!! You’ll go far 👍👍

He seems enthusiastic; comfortable on camera and a big smile on his face. Definitely deserves an apprenticeship and you'd be a great teacher for sure

Great to see especially in the current climate, so congratulations to Jordon and Oscar! Oscar will be off to great start in his career with artisan very lucky!

He is a beautiful blessing! He's great at his job and learning from you. BIG BIG THUMB UP! Cheer! PASSED!!

greetings from an Brazilian electrician. I started work on this area in 2010 with my father. nowadays I am working for myself on this wonderful job. greetings!

Just what is needed right now, more apprentices learning a trade. If someone keen shows up wanting an opportunity to prove their worth and want to learn and willing to get stuck in, they're worth investing in!

Yes. It’s allways good to pass on knowledge , especially to a young spark .... plus sometimes it’s nice to have a extra pair of hands ...

Well he is not camera shy so for you that’s perfect and I like the fact he has transport ( company Tesla in no time )

Take him on Jordan don’t be tight ! your due a good sidekick/camera man 😁 Good start in the industry learning from you too 👌🏼

Great teaching method mate. I like how you explained things to Oscar. A lot of people would have shouted at him for not knowing or checking it was dead.

Seems like a good lad, you've defo got to take him on Jordan. I've just got an apprentice and although he doesn't know much he saves me time and that's what it's all about. Great video as always👍

Woohoo, another fantastic video! Thank you muchly for working on, and fixing the audio levels :) "How do you know its not live" I trust you... NO work experience children were zapped in the making of this video. Haha 'Artisan Oscar' has a nice ring to it.

Very impressive methods of work, body language, confidence and most important thing is you sharing knowledge to everyone so nicely. Much appreciated and good luck for trainee!

I am not a sparks but I watch your channel from time to time enjoy it and have learned some stuff. When I was a kid (many years ago) I had a little ladybird book of electronics and in the village where I grew up in a young guy opened a TV repair shop. I went to him to scrounge old bits of wire and old torch lamps. From that encounter, he befriended me and taught me how to solder, read circuit diagrams, understand multimeters etc. We travelled all over the Leeds area fixing peoples telly's etc and this led me to a career in the Royal Navy working on Radios, Radar weapons systems and eventually computers, something I now still do after leaving the Navy 35 years ago. I am still friends with TV Geoff all these years later, I still build electronic projects and program computers or fix software and hardware. Take the young lad on if he is keen

Well done mate you will be great as a spark. Hope to see you again and get to see you fully qualified.

It's great that people are still willing to give young people the opportunity... Excellent!

Well done Jordan you explained everything perfectly to the lad. He seems keen and you can teach him well the right way to do electrics, an extra pair of hands to help do your work saves you doing everything yourself and why not your very busy. You’ve grown your business really well, your doing great.

Big respect to you for giving Oscar the opportunity 👍 Good teacher and learner 🤟

Nice 1 Jordan for giving the young lad a chance. It’s so difficult to get an apprenticeship nowadays.

Good luck Oscar You would have good teacher in Jordan

Well done Oscar on a first day of work experience and to be filmed you was great hope a big hope to see more of you.

@15:15 Good to see you are explaining the process - He's learning from a calm tutor.

Give him a chance to build up his future!! Oscar reminds me in 2005 when I start working as an electrician.. good luck and be patient :)

Good work lads. Good to see an apprentice getting good training with a good positive attitude 👍

He did a good job for the first time and it's nice of you to gave him the chance keep it up lad's.

Good Lad Oscar, congratulations, it looks like you're about to get a great start with an awesome business 😉 Jordan, well done on finding a great candidate, think you've found a great kid to help grow the business! Best of luck guys!

Looks like a good lad and keen newbie apprentice, seems like his family raised a proper gooden! If he enjoys the work I'd deffo keep him on. Not many school leavers seem that keen on doing any actual work nowadays, after a little while at least.

Oscar showed courage and intelligence to originally contact you - & the right kind of confidence. He went out and made it work, self starting, in the cruel, tough world. Definitely a young guy who will do well in life and hopefully as an apprentice to you Jordan.

He presented well, enthusiastic. not too shy for the camera. I think he deserves a shot, I would maybe tell him to arrive 10 mins early for work first 5 mins could be sorting the van etc

Generally love to see apprentices soak up the knowledge, I sent mine out this week for a week solo.....generally amazed at how far she's come. Good luck to you Oscar you will have a great teacher

Well done Óscar. I hope Jordan keep you in the team.

Well done Oscar, i took an apprentice on 9yrs ago and he is still working with me.

Nice one Jordan. I think Oscar is a good find he seems keen and a very presentable young lad 🙂👍

Good initiative taking on a Apprentice. Its important to give the younger generation a good introduction to the trade. Keep it up being a good role model :)

Definitely get the boy in. Fair play to the lad I'm sure you'll be the perfect mentor for him.

Seems a nice lad with the right motivation to learn a trade, and who better to have as his mentor. Well done Oscar. As a manager of 70 people of mixed trades I have always found that having someone with the right attitude and keeness to do the best job they can is key. I am sure that with your guidance Jordan, Oscar would develop into a great asset for your company.

For the lamp repair would you charge them hourly or do you quote it prior? I'm interested in how you go about quoting or getting the job for something like that?

Not exactly the topic of the video but.. How does one actually get an apprentice in general? I've tried looking it up a bit online but I can't seem to figure it out Do you just phone up an electrician and become an electrician like that? or do you have to join a college course first? Or is it standard practice to do few months of unpaid work experience and then transition into an apprentice? I'm really confused about the process to getting into the industry via apprenticeship

Fair play, seems like a good kid 👏

Just started my apprenticeship but starting on a building site, I’ve been “thrown in the deep end” as they tell me, haven’t done anything like this yet but we’re only on first fixings of apartment blocks. Any tips ??

Apprenticeship is i believe is the best way for getting students on the way you do things and they can also help you with changing the processes you have got a little complacent on.

Shame there's not more guys like you giving young lads a chance and most importantly helping them on our there journey to becoming a quality competent electrician and not giving him loads of shit and grief like most do with their apprentices

I had the plumbers grandson with me the other day. I was trying to explain to him that the solenoids gone in the electric shower and you know this because you’ve got 230 volts there you see. But I slipped with the probes and bang you bastard tripped the 50 amp mcb. Excellent videos thanks.

loved the video ...very well shown

Nice to see you investing in up and coming electricians

Great job Jorden. Seems a good lad and he listens to what you tell him and puts it into practice. He's a good time keeper and looks presentable. I would take a chance on him. He will do your company proud, he just needs to come out of his shell a little bit. 3 months trial and you'll know what he's really like as a person.

That is so fucking cute man, you can see that young kid with the motivation in his eyes. That was awsome of you to take him under your wing to show him a bit of what service works like. As soon as you said it was a one man job I knew you was taking the time out of your day for him.

Take him on Jordan! You’ll both benefit from it and he couldn’t have a better tutor 👌🏻. Wish you’d had been looking a few months back as i am fairly local to you and been doing EICRs for over 20 years. Long time in the industry and was looking to join a small team.

Hi well done Oscar good first day just a thought it would be very interesting to see how you use the kewtech can you show us please for the different tests etc what model is it ? thaks

Auw, Oscar looks incredibly young! I was waiting on the ole Happy Meal joke when you mentioned MacDonalds! Well done him though for using his initiative to get some good experience. He'll go a long way.

Nice one and Oscar seems like a good switched on lad I’m sure he’ll go far 👍

Good job Oscar, I can't wait to start working my self, this bloody virus is torpedoing my plans to finish my regs exam and get my ECS card.

i remember when i was his age, worked with a brilliant sparky, i also remember being a bit nervous and shy at the time

Your apprentice looks really nice and enthusiastic. Good luck with his career.

I like how he nods!

Us newbies/oldies need to get work experience. Any ideas on how we break into the industry , some of us have qualifications but no one will take us on without the experience . Cheers

I did my apprenticeship in the late 80s, you did a test for the citb if you passed you got to choose what trade you wanted to do,then they placed you for 4 years with a firm 3 months at college 9 months on site,if you passed everything you got a city and guilds at the end of it. It's mad how they do it now.

keen, doesnt appear lippy, smart well turned out young man -- thumbs up...

Well done Oscar and well done Jordan for giving him a chance. Oscar looked keen to learn, could be a useful addition to Artisan electrics.👍

Oscar seems quite keen. Great trade to be in. Im a medically retired electrician and i miss the job massively.

Very good for a first day .wiring a socket,using test equipment and even got the dustpan and brush out,you have trained Oscar well. Step aside Jordan😁

Excellent work guy and thank you for you videos. Am I told old to take up a new career to become an Electrician at 34?

Very smiley and seems like he loves his job. Big future ahead of you Oscar😎

What do you think about the course at TradeSkills 4u? I'm don't have any experience and I'm thinking to start my training there. At this moment I'm 32 so it's hard to go through apprentice way.

I always say that I prefer a humble guy who doesn't know much but open to learn than an arrogant block who doesn't listen but pretend to know everything! You can keep this young fellow!

Shame on you dislikes! Great videos as always and hats of to you Mr Artisan for your support of the next generation of electricians of this world 👍🏻

Getting a start is the hardest part. Giving Oscar that opportunity is brilliant to see, it’s hard out there to find an employer. We were all once young and eager to start, that may go with time but he seems like a nice lad. What have you got to lose?

Well done for giving this guy a job he will be good to have for you he seems like he wants to learn and you seem like a decent bloke and a great electrician I wished I had worked in my apprenticeship with someone like you, most men you work with are horrible or I may have had bad luck lol but anyway im past those days recently qualified waiting to do my inspection and testing also be cool if u made a video on what the inspection and testing exam is about like full detail. Cheers Jordan

Did you show him the sharp end (500v dc) of the test kit? 😂 That's what apprentices are for!

Cute video. I couldn't decide who was more nervous.
