Where are you currently in your renewable energy journey?

Just exploring the idea—I haven't taken any concrete steps yet. I've researched a bit and identified roles that interest me, but haven't pursued certifications. I'm actively working on relevant certifications or have completed some training. I have industry certifications (NABCEP, GWO, or equivalent) and practical experience already.

Which qualifications or background do you currently possess?

No formal background in engineering, science, or technical fields. General education or experience in a non-technical field (e.g., business, customer service). Technical background (electrician, construction, IT) or a degree in science/engineering. Degree in engineering, environmental science, or directly related field with hands-on project experience.

How comfortable are you with the practical demands of renewable energy roles?

I'm unsure—I haven't considered working at heights, in remote locations, or challenging weather. I'm open to it, but I'd need to assess my physical capability and comfort level first. I'm physically capable and willing to work on-site, though I'd prefer some flexibility. I'm fully prepared for field work, geographic flexibility, and the physical demands of the industry.

What's your networking and strategy readiness for landing a role?

I haven't started networking or building connections in the renewable energy sector. I've connected with a few people on LinkedIn but haven't attended industry events. I'm actively attending webinars, following industry leaders, and have a few professional contacts. I have a strong professional network, a mentor in the industry, and a clear job search strategy.
