Ive been back in Cardiff now for two years and recently quit my job to seek something long term and more so work that interests me, i have applied for apprenticeships with JTL and TWS and got an appitude test later this month but the thing that gets me is that they keep emphasising the fact that if you pass you still got to get your own employer so i realy dont see the need for them?

Anyway if someone could give me a little advice or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Pat.
