The industry isn’t that big. People know. They ask you in interviews, and people honestly answer. And despite what some want to believe “cadet” isn’t a poison chalice.
I know a lot of people here want to believe that anyone trained through a Cadetship/traineeship/Academy is “tainted goods”, that’s OK, believe what you want. Doesn’t make it true.
