One path I've seen bring career success to a number of folks is a short military enlistment. There are certain skills that are in demand in both the military and the private sector, and heavy diesel mechanic is one of them. Unlike private sector, you can enlist for 2 years in the Army with zero existing skills, and they will train you. You get out once your 2 years are up, and you are now a heavy diesel mechanic with 2 years of experience on your resume. Obviously this path is not for everyone, but it is a sure way to get training and experience in a specific technical field like heavy diesel equipment, in order to jump start your career.
