    Hi all,
    Well I've started the process of obtaining my AZ licence (well technically my ACZ licence) through an approved TTSAO school and was wondering what to expect as far as signing on with a company after graduating. I'm in my second week and it's been overwhelming in both a positive and mental sort of way.

    Any information regarding your first month or three out with "Company X" would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping to get a better idea of where to go and who to talk to in my final couple of weeks of school.

    Thanks in advance!!

    Start with the larger outfits, they will have mentorship programs. Smaller outfits will shy away from you especially seeing as winter is coming.

    It is a struggle to get on with your first company but after that is just gets easier.
