For the cabin mechanic pathway, can I have engineering experience outside the aviation industry?

Anonymous asked a question to Eugenia O.

I am a security engineer and have been looking to become a mechanic for an airline. I have heard a while back that you were able to hire from other vocations outside aviation, however the job description states that 'at least 12 months demonstrable experience in aircraft maintenance' is required.

    Hi. We are able to consider experience from outside of Aviation. You will need to demonstrate any hand skills you have gained from being a Mechanic/Engineering alongside any Engineering qualifications you hold. Thank you.
