Hiring Practices
Most employers prefer to hire applicants who have a high school diploma or GED. For apprenticeships, applicants must be at least 18 years old. Employers may require applicants to pass a physical exam and drug-screening test.
Employers look for applicants who are in good physical condition. They also look for people who have good eye-hand coordination. Experience repairing machinery can be helpful.
Advancement Opportunities
Opportunities for advancement are limited. Advancement often is in the form of working on more complex machinery. Mechanics may need more training to advance to other machines. Those who have good people skills may become supervisors. Highly skilled mechanics may become millwrights, master mechanics, or tool and die makers.
