Question:

What percent of auto technicians work on automatic transmissions?

I‘m interested in working on transmissions. Do people start with that system?

Answer:

Likelihood is slim. Only if a large shard of glass deeply penetrated a tread gap canal would it even be possible.
most of the garages have their own transmission man and that,s all they do is transmissions ! mechanics do stuff like change the oil, tune-ups and brakes ! a transmission man usually just works on transmissions !
automatic transmissions are one of the most complicated systems in a modern car. The percentage of technicians that can competently work on them is very small. I would guess 5-10%. It's very rarely where a tech would start with little or no experience. Another thing to consider is that auto transmissions do not fail like they use to. The business of repairing them is a dying business. Places like Aamco who use to specialize in only transmissions, are having to branch out into general repairs because transmissions are being built to last much, much longer these days with little to no service needed.
They start with the basics f them. But rebuilding them and tearing them down takes many years of practice and knowledge talk about complicated. Good line of work to go into. Never be out of a job!
