Yep, i googled electrical retailers and electrical services, clicked on the map and have set about contacting every one starting from the closest to home and working out from there and so far no one will even listen to his qualifications, as soon as he mentions work experience he gets told no go.

He has been ringing from School under the guidance of his Teacher and is getting no where.

It really is disheartening as he is a well respected kid at school and TAFE, works hard, has gone about setting a career path whilst earning a bit along the way and no one is even willing to listen.

Honestly, what chance does a kid have at earning a decent future if people wont even let him work for free to pass his High School qualifications.
