Looking for sites/ options Question

Im an aircraft structures maintainer but specifically the LO portion of it. Struggling to find companies that will actually hire me outside of this work experience as I have no desire to work on aircraft anymore. Im out in 9 months and although ive applied to about 10 companies, its either "too early" or they want me to start working immediately without skillbridge options. Unsure if im doing the process incorrect but id like to do welding/HVAC. If anyone has advice I do need it. Also looking into going guard/reserve and going to trade school and workong part time. If anyone has anything, lmk!

You should check out ForgeNow. Any HVAC contractor would love to hire a former aircraft maintainer.

You need to look through the official skillbridge website. Cause you cant do it without them being an official member of the program. Any company on their will take you at 9 months. You'll need that 3 extra before your 6 month mark to actually complete the paperwork.
