Reply to comment by sammydee44 in Union Jobs information.. by givingup3579

Lol. Local 12 is not hurting for members. The advertising is to promote the union in general. We take an apprentice class every year, but there are way more applicants than spots. Being a woman can definitely help. Knowing someone in the union who will vouch for you will also help. I think it’s too late to apply for this year’s class, but it can’t hurt to go down and talk to them.

Just talked to a business agent from 12 recently during our contract negotiations so agree with you on the female angle and Boston residency, and never hurts to contact them asap. Yeah, classes fill up quick but it’s not like a few years back when it was a very long wait
