Tips for Entry
Conduct information interviews with labor union business agents and ask them for advice on preparing for and entering the field.
Use social media such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter to stay up to date on union-related issues, network, and learn about job openings.
Work your way up to the position of union business agent by first becoming a union apprentice, then a journeyman, and finally a union steward.
