A little OJT goes a long way.

I’m a high school drop out who ended up spending a decade programming, operating and maintaining industrial robots.

RE: I’m a high school drop out who ended up spending a decade programming, operating and maintaining industrial robots.

What did they hire you for in the beginning?

Why were they willing to take a chance on you (no college degree )?

How many college grads are working with you now?

How much on average does the job pay in the USA?

Thanks, your answer will be helpful to a lot of folks in this thread.

My twenty-something son is trying to figure out how to get into a hands on job and I thought the job you do might be a good opportunity. Any advice on how to get the younger generation pointed into this field?
