O*net online may provide some helpful information and it also provides technology skills, education, salary, etc.. to go along with the career path. Use keyword search or explore via the "Career Cluster" drop down.

Central to the project is the O*NET database, containing hundreds of standardized and occupation-specific descriptors on almost 1,000 occupations covering the entire U.S. economy. The database, which is available to the public at no cost, is continually updated from input by a broad range of workers in each occupation. The Occupational Information Network (O*NET) is developed under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Labor/Employment and Training Administration

Hi Raphael, Although this site provides good information, I don't think sending a student to another link is the most helpful response. Students are looking for personal insight on a topic, in this case welding. Is there any additional info you can provide about the typical day as a welder? I'm sure the student would greatly appreciate it!
Gurpreet Lally, Admin
Gurpreet, thank you for the feedback. I am not a welder but wanted to provide what information I could find to try and help. From my understanding others can add to the thread and provide more insights. Please feel free to share your experiences. Kind regards.

I have only done welding as a hobby, as a day of work I would say it could be tiring on he eyes and physically demanding on the body, that said very satisfying if you do the right projects
