Jakob Wittholm 25, apprenticeship according to HBLVA

After completing his A-levels at the HBLVA in Vienna, Jakob fell in love with the landscape and mountains around Admont. ‘I came across the Admonter Holzindustrie via the job encyclopaedia and was immediately impressed by the training opportunities there,’ says Jakob when asked how he became aware of the Admonter Holzindustrie. He particularly likes the fact that apprentices at Admonter benefit from their own apprentice trainer and mentor. They have the opportunity to turn to him at any time with professional questions and private challenges. The above-average pay is just the icing on the cake. Jakob’s interest in technology knows no bounds and his open, likeable manner is sure to help him reach one or two milestones in his professional career.
