Did you know that wood industry jobs pay $2,000 to
$11,000 more a year than many jobs that require a
bachelor’s degree? What’s more, you can sometimes get
paid while starting an entry-level woodworking job or
other wood industry position while you train as an
apprentice. To help you get started, here are some online
resources for you to search for current jobs in the wood
industry. No experience? No problem. WIRC routinely adds
and updates educational programs, scholarship
and apprenticeship opportunities, to get the
experience you need. In many cases, employers are looking
for current apprentices to hire for entry-level jobs!
