Jesus G’s Answer

You learn how to weld different types of metals together based on the specifications your supervisors tell you to do. Different metals require different certifications, which means different attachments need to be used for your welding gun. You learn positioning best practices as you'll often be welding in weird and uncomfortable positions. School and certification usually takes 2 years and you have to be willing to travel for work. The more experience, certifications, and knowledge you have about welding the more you can get paid. Welders on average make really good money, but you're away from home a lot. It's also a good idea to know someone inside the industry already that can help you get started quickly.
