My hubby did both, however he doesn't really want to do factory work if here if he can help it, so we have leaned more to the house bashing side of things for the TRA.

mechanics can actually connect to the mains, a fitter can't. Most jobs want you to have the connect to mains licence which is a full one. A fitter will only get a restricted licence.
