Work experience prospect relative to IT/Computer Assembly Options

[Mr.Twinkie]

Hi guys.

As a TVET student of electrotechnology in TAFE, I'm wondering if there's any work experience you guys know of or better yet, can offer that can do a duration of 35 hours over 5 days.

I am a diligent and courteous student that is no troublemaker at school and actively participate in volunteering.

I'm located in NSW 2141 but am happy to travel a bit.

So is there any opportunities out there?

I think posting here is a great idea, I have done something similar, asking for advice on what to do after I finish my studies! Best of luck!

Hey, if you need "some" work experience, then I'd try some local pc shops.

It's hard to do, because it's such a closed shop, unless you sign an NDA and are prepared to work for nothing, learning nothing more than you found out about around here..
<edit> or/and have a dip/assDip/ or a degree in an associated subject (ITC, IS)</edit>
Yeah, sure anybody loves a dumb (edit cant spell dunb) labourer.

Maybe you could break in by checking out local communications companies, that way your gonna learn and you'll need all your experience.

Jump in, check out Elpro (Australian Telemetri communications), Jaques Elestronics, and SONTEC (fast food drive thru comms), in Brisbane, australia.

Because if you study electronics, it's hard to sepatrate computing from it. You get more, maybe not what you initialy want, but what you may use later..

It's a leap of faith, but if you respect..

Could be good.

At SONTEC/CHUBB I worked on a lot of Pager-Base systems, These were esentially a pc, with a radio amplifier.

I also worked on reconing speakers and refitting mixing consoles with new (pots) volume controls of various types.

This is also where I found out about more to do with radio (rx/tx) transmission and reception.

And wireless comms for (drive-in) fastfood resturants.

Sweet, I learned heaps, Befor that I had A+ and MCSE2k. They used nt4

I had cameras up all over the place
(actually, it was just three cams outside the workshop doors (they were pir's. to see if the boss was comming, or if the caffertiria (opposite) was busy, under the guise of benching a new video servalience package on PC.

lol, so bright, but so uncompleted.

If there was a way I could 'like' this above post I would. There is so much hardware/networking knowledge to be gained at schools!
