Inspector Gadget,
As with everything you have to serve an “apprenticeship” before you can get to where you want to go.
Try contacting one of the inspection agencies – Bureau Veritas (formerly CCI Pope), Pearl Street (formerly ETRS), DITS or Intico.
Explain what your intentions are (you want to progress to Welding Inspector) and if you are lucky you may be able to get a start or at least they can give you advise as to the best path to take.
The advantage of starting off with a recognised inspection agency is you gain the experience, looks good on the CV and most of the companies pay for your qualifications and training.
I started off 15 years ago, paid for my Welding Inspectors cert myself, got a start with SGS NZ as a Welding Inspector / Trainee Radiographer – spent 4 years with them gaining experience in MT, PT, RT & UT and then I was off and flying.
Good luck with your future career,
Regards,
BB
