Heavy vehicles

How should you look for a first job without a DEP?

Published: 11 nov. 2026Updated: 11 nov. 2026

Short answer

On your résumé, say clearly that you are an apprentice or an applicant without a DEP, rather than presenting yourself as a journeyperson. List the vehicles and tasks you have already handled, even in another mechanical trade, and ask who will supervise your training.
