How To Get Started In CONSTRUCTION Without EXPERIENCE [AND BE SUCCESSFUL]

Please can someone add me to Beulding construction group please am begging

If you can't get a job in America just leave! Seriously. The entire world is looking for construction workers.

Keep such videos coming. Thanks.

Everyone deserves at least enough to do more than just survive. That's a problem that'll ruin what many people think is a great society. Not to mention to make enough to survive, you probably have to work a lot and don't have time for taking classes and training. At some point, businesses will have to suck it up and hire people based on character, not on experience.

Thank you for the key words I was able to easily find this video by searching it. Thank you

"I'm gonna call out millennials."
The dude looks young enough to be one😂

Well said!

Mike, I would like to have a word with you. I have no experience in construction at all except I am more of a handyman. My background is in IT and General Business, however I like to start a home renovation business of my own. What assistance can you provide or guide me? Thanks.

I want a job requiring physical labor but I have no experience and I don't really know where to start plus I dont have money to take those classes that teach me so finding jobs isn't easy and I'm not good at doing restaurant work which is the only thing available for me

For a general contractor, what types of permits do I need in Virginia? Could you provide some guidance links, etc. Thank you

i got hired on w a company im not great at math im a hard worker not very confident tho. i havent passed my HiSet class im conserned about getting fired for not catching on. what can i do to make them want to work with me? i got hired because i went through a pre apprenticeship program (didnt really give us construction experience thoe)

Hey Mike, I am currently getting my Bachelors in Applied Management and I am looking to get into the construction industry as a Project Manager but I have no experience. What entry level management jobs would you suggest I apply for to strive towards that path?

Going to college majoring in construction management. Hopefully will start a general laborer job sometime this year to get some experience while I’m in school

I’ve been wanting to get into construction for awhile now and I have no luck

15 an got about 2 months experience on the holidays thankfully found a good boss

🤤

I got some questions I just starting doing construction and I pretty much got fired, but he's giving me another chance, I start work tomorrow and Im pretty nervous about it.

Hi Mike since I'm about to start to draw my business plan can you tell me where to start I want to know whether as private constructor or commercial like getting jobs from government or what

Preach!

I live in Charlotte and there is a huge problem with contractors that could pass the test but know absolutely 0 about construction. They get on a job sit and they are totally lost and it shows you can't hide fake. These companies don't last a year for one reason NO EXPERIENCE lol this guy is so full of it. I've been in construction for 18 years I see it every day.

What if we are old say like ohh 28-38 range! that's a no go to be a contracted worker right!

Basically its like life
Stay humble, give everything you got , treat others like you want to be treated

God bless

This video has been really helpful, because I’m starting a construction job tomorrow and I don’t know what to expect. Are there any pros and cons that can help me be involved in the construction business?

My husband worked from $10/hr and went up to $28/hr by proving his value. Now we're trying to start our own business.

Thank you for sharing this information. Just wondering if you have any idea about how to start general labour business in Ontario. If you know, please let me know.

I got lucky enough to get a job in a field I wanted to do, I lost a construction job due to inexperience, but I still lack solid experience, what are some good tips to keep the job, or at least be more proactive instead of lost at the worksite?

U kept it all the way real and didnt try to sell me anything I appreciate that

At 53 with no actual construction experience I’m starting out with a road crew. Ultimately I want to do heavy equipment operation. After 30 years in hospitality management I have no desire to return to that world after the pandemic. I’ve been doing painting and lots of handyman work the past 2 years and really like working in the skilled trades. I’m a little old to start off on the end of a shovel but I’m jumping right in there like I’m 25.

Hey Mike I'm new I don't have experience I don't know where to start but I'm hungry for it can you help me please

I agree on what he says about swallowing your pride and just asking for low level job and work your way up .

Just work for anything they’ll give you?

I can tell you own a business because that’s insane. If construction ain’t willing to pay you decently for breaking your back then they can go kick rocks.

As a contractor myself, I would sometimes prefer to hire someone with little to no experience. Trying to break someone's bad habits is more frustrating that teaching from the beginning

Mike i just took the leap in starting my own company ive been a superintedent for over 10 plus yrs and my problem right now is all the office and paper work portion please help

Hey Mike! Great video. I want to start plastering but I can only skim a wall (smooth finish). Is it professional enough to start with only 1 service and not a full-range?

I really want to purchase homes, remodel them and flip them. But In order to do that I must learn the basics of construction because I have to know what’s right from wrong when my employees start remodeling the homes. This video answered a lot of my questions. Thank you.

So I got a job with no experience I’m here on the site now. They have not really taught me shit and now they are threatening to fire me on day 3

It’s my goal to become a contractor and build a business one day and this video really inspired me.

I plan on being a construction helper are there tests or something like that to get hired? what's the general hiring process?

Hey! So I have been a Dozer Operator doing dirt work for 10 years. I would like to go into business on my own so I can make all the money I make my boss. How do I do that?

I got myself into the construction industry as a generic laborer and I can't drive.

The good thing is that the job doesn't require me to use a car, but, taking a 3 hour bus ride for 7am and 8am shift can take a toll with light equipment on rainy days.

It really is hard work and all is possible to learn more at a low level. I took time off now, to rethink how long I could keep up that endurance because it comes with 7 hours of sleep and 15 hours of activity and 2 wasted hours waiting for buses and having it stopped to pick up other people when I'm scheduled to work. It's all normal aspect of hard work.

At this point it's just location distance on bus travel and I really hate far away job sites. It feels a bit like military training, especially getting to work without a vehicle.

I must return to work soon. Yikes

Hey mike, is there anyway I can start a construction business with no experience? my dad has over 20 years of experience?

Is general labor a good start to start without no experience?

Thanks I’m 13 and I wanted to see what the job about thanks

Great video man

Great video Mike!

Hello, I have my license, but I feel I do not have enough experience in some aspects, especially I only worked for a company that most of its work underground utilities, electrical, and fire alarm. I need to know about framing and residential. Since I want to start my own little company, I won’t be able to take some public work, so I need to get experience in residential
