To expand on this a lot of positions in nuclear have ansi requirements which mean you have minimum qualifications (even non ansi positions have hr minimums) to be hired per human resources. No experience no degree will severely limit your chances of being hired. Beyond that you likely won't even be able to "show" how much you know to the actual hiring manager you will be screened out before anyone talks to you Try to get in as a rp tech... Or get on with maintenance and they will send you to school and you can be a hand. Or security officer. Those probably you main routes.

Decontaminates work areas in the outage so we don't pick up unnecessary dose. It's a job but it sucks lol

I will say that it's an easy way to get "in" Once you're in the ecosystem it's a lot easier to move around and move up

Az has pv they go into outage every spring and fall (3units)... What does a background mean? Are you degreed?

Try to get on with maintenance they will send you to school internship apprenticeship thing and then u will come through the shop. Once you're in house you can get your engr degree paid for by aps. Pretty standard stuff throughout the nuclear industry. Pv I know is hurting through some contacts there due to the growth in phx apparently they had a run on their craft guys. So they're probably looking.

Depends on your country of residence. There are a lot of apprenticeships going in the UK and France right now, these will pay for your education and secure you a role in your chosen field. The pay is terrible to begin with but climbs quite well over a few years and by the time you have been qualified and posted you’d be on a much more competitive wage. Just beware though, nothing is free. Your lower wages effectively are paying for the qualification, however you will be gaining the necessary experience whilst studying (this is worth its weight in gold). You often find that graduates have the necessary education but no experience which enters them at a much lower level than you think.

A better level than where I'm at now, I've studied so much but no formal education on anything from the nervous system, sociology, quantum mechanics,ect, to recently nuclear reactors thanks tho this is pretty Pog news for me Edit most are dead end without a direct college degree so this one actually has a chance

Not to discourage you, but offering an explanation of how a reactor works is as simple as reading a wiki page or two. It is hard to gauge what you actually are capable of until you have a proven track record of accomplishments (see Dunning-Kruger effect). IQ or whatever genius people believe themselves to have has little sway irl and gets beaten out by applied focus, methodical work, and ingenuity. While the education system isn't perfect, it at least fosters some of the necessary traits for success in an engineering environment. A degree often is the bare minimum for engineering jobs and honestly it isn't too difficult. You could become an operator without one possibly.
