Network Apprentice information

What is a network apprentice?

A Network Apprentice is an entry-level professional who is learning the skills necessary to install, maintain, and troubleshoot computer networks. Through a combination of hands-on work and classroom learning, they assist experienced network engineers or administrators with tasks like setting up hardware, configuring network devices, and monitoring network performance. Apprenticeships are designed to provide practical experience and technical knowledge, preparing individuals for a career in network administration or engineering. This role is ideal for those seeking to start a career in IT networking without prior experience.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a network apprentice, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Network Apprentice, you need a foundational understanding of networking concepts, basic troubleshooting skills, and typically a relevant diploma or coursework in IT or computer science. Familiarity with network hardware, common operating systems, and basic use of tools like Cisco Packet Tracer or Wireshark, alongside pursuing certifications such as CompTIA Network+ or Cisco CCNA, is often expected. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and good communication skills help you stand out in this role. These competencies are crucial for effectively supporting network operations, learning from experienced professionals, and ensuring reliable connectivity within an organization.

What types of hands-on projects can a network apprentice expect to work on during their training?

As a Network Apprentice, you can expect to participate in a variety of hands-on projects including configuring routers and switches, assisting with network installations, troubleshooting connectivity issues, and monitoring network performance. You'll likely shadow experienced network engineers and support routine maintenance tasks, giving you practical exposure to both hardware and software aspects of networking. These projects help build foundational skills and offer opportunities to learn industry-standard practices in real-world environments, which are essential for career growth in networking.

Description:

Join the Team at Electrical Solutions, Inc.

Electrical Solutions, Inc. (ESI) is a growing electrical contractor based in Sauk Rapids, MN. We specialize in commercial electrical construction, service work, industrial projects, security camera systems, access control, network infrastructure, and specialty low-voltage systems.


We're looking for an experienced, motivated Apprentice Electrician who enjoys variety, takes pride in quality workmanship, and wants to build a long-term career with a company that's continuing to grow.


No two days are the same. One day you may be troubleshooting a commercial service call, the next leading a new construction project, installing security systems, or helping complete an industrial electrical installation.


Position Summary

We are seeking a dependable Apprentice Electrician to join our growing team. This position involves hands-on electrical work in both service and construction environments, including troubleshooting, installation, maintenance, and customer interaction.


This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to grow professionally, take on additional responsibility, and advance into a Journeyman Electrician, Lead Electrician, Project Manager, or other leadership role as ESI continues to expand.


Job Responsibilities

Electrical Installation & Service

  • Install, troubleshoot, repair, and maintain commercial and industrial electrical systems.
  • Perform service work and diagnose electrical issues safely and efficiently.
  • Read and interpret blueprints, wiring diagrams, and electrical drawings.
  • Install lighting, power distribution, controls, security cameras, access control, and other low-voltage systems as needed.
  • Ensure all work complies with NEC requirements and company safety standards.

Project Support

  • Work closely with project managers and fellow electricians to complete projects safely, efficiently, and on schedule.
  • Maintain accurate documentation of work performed.
  • Assist with material takeoffs and communicate material needs.
  • Represent ESI professionally while working directly with customers.

Leadership & Teamwork

  • Work independently while supporting apprentices and other electricians.
  • Mentor apprentices and help develop the next generation of electricians.
  • Communicate professionally with customers, coworkers, suppliers, and contractors.
  • Contribute ideas to improve efficiency, quality, and customer satisfaction.
Requirements:

  • Experience with security cameras, access control, networking, or low-voltage systems


What We Offer

  • Competitive pay based on experience
  • Performance-based wage increases
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Retirement plan with company match
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Ongoing training and professional development
  • Advancement opportunities into leadership positions
  • Stable, year-round work
  • Supportive team environment where your ideas and experience are valued

Why Join ESI?

We're not looking to simply fill a position—we're looking for someone who wants to become part of our team for years to come.


At ESI, you'll work on a wide variety of projects, have opportunities to continue learning, and help build a growing company that values quality workmanship, teamwork, and long-term relationships with both employees and customers.
