    It very much depends on the place you are working in. Some places require experience in industrial plumbing,electrical or both, other places would require very specific experience with various machines and process's. A lot of places just require someone to empty the bins, cut the grass ,and do a bit of painting anything else would be given out to contract ie. plumbers for plumbing electricians for electrical .As for improving your chances I would suggest doing a few electrical courses eg electrical safety and maybe get some experience in landscaping.You should also get certification for manual handling,abrasive wheels etc if you don't already have them and keep them up to date
