Hello, I would start to work in construction. But I don’t have experience. I’m 19 years. Currently, I finished the high school. Can you recommend where to start?

I'm a plumber with 8 years experience. For 6 years I‘ve worked in a construction company but since 2012 I am working as independent. As the sector is recovering I wanted to return to work in a company. Do you know of a company that is looking for plumbers?
