Hi ! Just to tell you a bit about myself, I'm 26, (french), and after a short career in video editing I worked a bit as a production agent in a factory.

I'm currently trying to find a profession. I was always drown to jobs revolving around being of service of people, and problem solving (my favorite game of all time is Factorio, don't know if that's a tell), so PLC maintenance interests me a lot.

I think my profile is kind of unatractive for companies : usually, people don't drop out of audiovisual environment after a cinema school, and I'm expensive as an apprentice (I'm 26 so there's a minimum salary I have to be paid and France is killing all financial assistances for apprenticeship); so I know it's going to be really difficult for me to find an apprenticeship, whatever the domain is. I'm currently trying to get one in computer maintenance, but after 4 months of searching I still have nothing.

Do you think I have a chance to work in this domain ? I don't really have prior knowledge but I'm willing to learn stuff by myself before searching. And is apprenticeship the only way to get there ?
