We share a practical playbook for breaking into low voltage with no experience, from finding real openings and calling companies, to standing out in interviews, succeeding in the first 90 days, and moving from helper to technician. Along the way, we talk BICSI, certifications, safety, and the mindset that wins.
• mapping your drive radius and calling contractors directly
• using LinkedIn, distributors and unions to find hidden jobs
• choosing smart search keywords for entry-level roles
• applying without all requirements and leading with reliability
• learning tools, cable types, drawings and safety basics
• deciding when to get OSHA 10, CPR and early certs
• writing a tight resume and emailing professionally
• what to say on calls and how to follow up
• interview questions that signal career focus
• spotting onboarding red flags and culture gaps
• winning your first 90 days with initiative and notes
• moving from helper to technician through responsibilities
• networking at BICSI and distributor events
• avoiding career-slowing mistakes like speed over quality
• mindset shifts: consistency beats talent, quality before speed
Check my posts for the informal memorial for Phil Cleaningsmith at the BICSI Winter Conference
