yes, you can join ibew as an apprentice. they will most likely make you start over as a first year apprentice however. a first year apprentice in the ibew makes as much money as a 3rd or 4th year open shop apprentice.
Start off about $/labor hour, then eventually you'll get a raise (12-18)/flag hour.
