About this episode

Chirag shares his rapid journey from recruitment to becoming a gas engineer in just two weeks, discussing industry challenges and content creation.

Chirag is back on Trade Legends, and this time he's revealing all, including how he went from recruitment and estate agency to qualifying as a gas engineer in just two weeks. We get into whether that's actually enough to be safe on the job, the real cowboys in the industry, growing a YouTube channel to 16K subscribers, why long-form content beats shorts every time, the customer comments that make every tradesperson's blood boil, and why consistency is the only thing that actually builds a career.
