journeyman electrician resume example

I finished my final 2 years of my 5 years apprenticeship with Contra Costa Electric at Chevron Refinery Richmond, CA. I was privileged to work in the industrial environment while completing my apprenticeship and turning out as a California State Certified Journeyman Inside wireman. Not long after I turned out, I was promoted to Foreman while working 7 days a week, 12 hour days on a plant shutdown. I left Contra Costa to pursue a less stressful environment in Humboldt County. Below are some of the many tasks performed while working at Chevron:

• Cutting, threading and bending RMC up to 5" trade size diameter
• Ground Grid installations
• Repaired and installed new fixtures, wiring, circuits, and motors.
• Troubleshot and repaired malfunctioning systems and components.
• Inspected electrical systems, equipment and components to identify hazards, defects and need for adjustment or repair.
• Completed rough-in, termination, and underground work.

• I entered a 5 year apprenticeship program upon completing and entry level position filling electrical material lists and delivering material. While simultaneously doing some labor in the form or digging and fire caulking.
• I began as an apprentice with a small Residential contractor Dawson Electric, I spent ~1.5-2 years learning residential and building the foundation of my electrical knowledge and understanding basic circuitry. We primarily focused on custom homes to tract homes along with some lite commercial.
• I was then rotated to a few Commercial Contractors, primarily Del Monte Electric, where I learned conduit bending and larger scale installations along with three phase wiring configurations. I spent ~1.5 years in commercial electrical as an apprentice.
• Once I got the exposure to the commercial industry, I was rotated again to Contra Costa Electric to get Industrial exposure. This is where I completed my 5 year apprenticeship program and became a journeyman electrician.
• State Certification # 161185
