What talents & interests tell me I am a good match to become a plumber?

Natural problem-solver – If you are a natural problem solver and enjoy physical problem-solving in particular (being able to fix things with your hands) then you have the core skill to be a great plumber.
-
People skills – Generally, plumbing, as a trade, involves a lot of interaction with clients and your team so it is important to be a great active listener and to be able to empathise well with others among many other important people skills.
-
Physically demanding – Plumbing is a physical trade so being fit and having the strength to carry out all plumbing tasks is important.
-
Mental toughness – To build a plumbing career you need to be mentally tough and resilient. There will be a lot of difficult situations and personal setbacks during your apprenticeship and career. It will be difficult to cope in these times if you are not resilient and mentally tough.
