I agree with the GPA vs. connections thing. I tried going the honest route for an internship with my gpa, for years, that didn't work. Eventually I used and abused some family connections and got some work with a large engineering firm. If you want to use 'connections' they have be quite strong. IE they are willing to put their reputation on the line for you. And you have to be a hard worker, if you screw up, it's their rear end too. Just being 'friends' with the guy doesn't cut it. They have to be willing to vouch and take responsibility for you.

RedReverend posted:We've got a branch campus of WSU here in town, as well as a lot of govt contractors and high tech industry. They mostly recruit their engineers out of the local campus. I'd say that it depends on the area though. Most of the local graduates I know of, only get hired as engineers if they already have had an internship/existing job at one of the local companies. Or inside contacts. Entry level engineering jobs have gotten a lot harder to find in this locale. I don't mind doing other jobs, but that makes it that much longer towards getting a PE.

As a recent ME graduate, what should I be using to find jobs? Careerbuilder and monster doesn't seem to cut it and I'm tired of going around and making accounts for big engineering/construction companies. Currently I'm employed at a large company but I won't get promoted for a better position(field engineer) for another 6 months.. and even then that is a big IF.....

panascope posted:Should I try to schedule a phone interview or see if the manager would be receptive to an evening or weekend interview? Or should I just stick out a few months working a poo poo job before trying to find something better? I probably wouldn't feel bad considering leaving this job if it wasn't my buddy's dad that I was working for. Schedule a phone interview, it is quite normal. (While a weekend or evening interview isn't impossible. What is in it for them to do it?) There's nothing wrong with discussing job prospects at the very least. As for working for your friend's dad, ask him and get a feel for how long he wants you. Honestly if you can give him a one month notice, and write instructions for your replacement on how to do their job, that would probably be a huge help. (You need to do this, you can find it here. For this you need to contact XXX. This stuff is located here. Etc..) Wait until things are official before making any announcements.

Wolfy posted:What do Civs do? A lot. Some work at construction sites as managers. As far as I know these are terribly easy jobs that don't require any real engineering. If this is something that interests you there is a degree called Civil Engineering Technology/Construction Engineer/Construction Management Technology or some combination. These degrees are typically light on math and geared towards these kind of jobs. Bah hah hah. I don't know which construction companies you've worked with, but engineers working in construction don't have easy jobs. It's often up to us to fix stupid poo poo design engineers do. Like design engineers deciding to put equipment in a location that cannot be easily welded or bolted down. Or a location that does not meet fire or electrical code requirements. Or rewelding equipment to certain standards because a vendor hosed up. Or stupid designs that get craft hurt. Anyone working any kind of design position should have exposure to construction. If they're not coming from a craft background, then they should go do some construction engineering for a bit. Some folks might think it is beneath them, but I think overall it results in better quality work. Senor P. fucked around with this message at 04:02 on May 11, 2012 |

grover posted:Engineering is always a compromise. Sometimes, the design engineer simply made a mistake, but more often, these decisions were often made for a very good reason and changing the location creates other issues elsewhere. They're definitely not changes that should be made blindly by a tradesman who wants a little more room to work. But the numbers really do need to be ran by the original design engineer, or the design engineer at least consulted as to WHY he ran a pipe through the electrical panel exclusion area, etc, so that the adjustment can be made properly. Like building their own houses, violating building codes, then just stamping it off as passing inspection for the hell of it. Guess next time at work I'll just stamp off these pressure vessel welds as being 'acceptable'. Not adhering to codes is certainly a great way to ensure safety and quality.

It sounds like I won't be able to get a summer internship for my final summer because of the grant money that is being used for my research at school, so I'm going to try and set up some appointments for tours of different companies in 2013/2014. Some guys I graduated with in undergrad are already complaining about their jobs since they just took the first job offer they got, and I do not want to make that same mistake. To be fair, you don't really get a lot of choice in the current economy. If you can get a seemingly decent engineering job (decent pay, and health benefits), I would say take it. Chances are when you graduate, you won't be working WHERE you want to work, and you won't be doing WHAT you want to do. Hopefully in a couple of years, you will be able to start doing what you want.

Does anyone have reccomendations for engineering companies that don't suck, located in the Pacific Northwest? I've only worked at one large company but looking around online I don't think a lot of people like the large companies. (Intel, Microsoft, General Electric, etc....) The reason I ask is it looks like I'm going to have to move back to Oregon or Seattle to help my father get ready for retirement. Booties, the other thing you have to realize is chances are your cover letter will be looked at by multiple people. HR folks, your immediate supervisor, their boss, and possibly their boss too.

Does designing reactors suck? Tell me what is better than that. I've done some work in non-proliferation and didn't find it very interesting, and I have no desire to work with weapons. Those are pretty much the only things I won't do, although I'd prefer not to be driving a reactor forever if I could avoid it. Right now the new reactors being built are... AP1000 (US), EPR (Europe), and APR1400 (S. Korea), VVER 1000, and VVER 1200 (Russia). Those countries are who designed them, not where they're being built. I think that's it.

On the subject of P.E. licenses I don't think it is fair to discrimate those who have not gone to college. People coming from craft backgrounds have been able to get their P.E's ahead of time. My old boss managed to get his P.E. before going and getting his degree. Also I really don't think graduate school should count an additional 2 years out of the necessary 4 to a P.E. license. (Graduate research and work are not the same.) Metapod posted:I'm a junior in high school and I would like to know what does it take to be a civil engineer? The ability to move dirt, survey, and perform basic maths. They do stuff with concrete, grout, structual steel, and other steel shapes.

RogueLemming posted:A lot of this is public perception. Part of the PE is instilling trust in the public that standards are in place to protect them. No one cares that a tradesman could be more competent than an "official" engineer, they want to see that piece of paper. It's the same reason a 21 year old music major is "more qualified" to be a manager at Target than someone who has worked there 20 years. 20 years experience, because he still managed to get his license, has worked on numerous projects, has worked in the field, and has worked with numerous PE engineers, design engineers, operations, and others. How does trade school not count as formal schooling? You do know craft have to be able to read drawings, do math, know their applicable codes, right? Do you think that there is no education involved in learning how to weld? Repair HVAC equipment? Be a millwright, electrician or pipe fitter? Compared to an engineer with a PE, 10 years of experience of sitting in the office and not being able to handle working in a field environment and know how things are done or how the equipment they're involved in actually works. The choice seems obvious to me.

mitztronic posted:So my new position has me in the core of our company and I am occasionally introduced into the upper management drama. The politics & posturing in upper management is so disgusting. Lots of them are as dumb as a sack of bricks, which to me is the cherry on top. Everyone involved on the engineering side (from engineering managers (technical management) to program chief engineers is fine though. Its the management execs and some VPs/etc that are just... unbelievable. Their maturity level is around elementary school level. I had a ExDir tell someone that he "wasnt trying to break [his] balls" in a meeting. So loving unprofessional. I gotta agree with Nam Taf here. If you can't handle something like "Quit busting my balls" or "Shove it up your rear end!" or a "gently caress you!" in a meeting, you're probably working in the wrong place. The worst I've had to deal with so far... 1. We were sitting in a connex on break, talking about people having kids and one of the fitters in the crew I support mentioned something about wanting no N***** babies or mixing the races. 2. Talking behind closed doors about how they wanted to sexually assault a co-worker of mine. These were'nt old guys either. However it just varies widely on where the people grew up, what kind of schools they went to, and who they hung out with. The guys I'm working with right now don't have that problem from what I've seen so far. So yeah something along the lines of "Quit busting my balls!" is pretty tame to some other stuff you're gonna hear.

You have to remember that there is a reason things like NRC's fatigue rule had to be invented. Also the fines that the NRC give to power plants are pretty drat low in contrast to how much money these things make per day. If you graduate as a nuclear engineer you can do work a mechanical engineer can, one of my co-workers was like that. I keep hearing "oh we need more people experienced in nuclear" but when you consider the number of facilities that have closed or are shutting down and the people from there looking for other jobs I think the nuclear market is oversaturated.

I'm extremely skeptical of this and have said as much. They're ABET accredited. All of the labs are done via simulator programs. Should I be discouraging people from doing this? It just seems really sketchy. Edit** ABET actually covers this on their website. ASU's online EE program is ABET accredited, so no worries there. North Dakota's is not. http://www.abet.org/online-programs/ If they're going to want their PE license within the first 4-6 years of working, I would say go to a ABET accredited program. If the main campus has ABET accredidation but the online program does not, in terms of quality of the programs I would not be too concerned about it. If the college/unversity does not have ABET accredidation and is offering 4 year engineering degrees, then that is a red flag to me. Computer Science is different, they are not engineers and are not required to pursue licensing. Honestly out of all the Mechanical Engineering labs I did, most of them I think were a waste of time physically performing the lab. I think if you could create an online simulator that shows effectively what you do and churns out the necessary data you need to analyze, that is the key thing. While some labs you go get to do some hands on stuff (I enjoyed doing metallurgical analysis.) Stuff like fatigue life or modulus of elasticity labs are kind of boring.

Shipon posted:What's seen as better internship experience: ones at smaller companies or larger companies? I've been working at my present internship (ChemE) for the past six months at a company of about 40 people, and I feel like I'm just doing technician level work, instead of getting the experience companies are actually looking for. The people are nice and the schedule is flexible during the year, but I just feel like a larger company might be better equipped to give projects you can actually learn from (The entire point of my major seems to be process scaling and a small company really can't do that), and would pay better to boot. I think it depends. A larger company will probably look better on your resume but a smaller company will more likely be more enjoyable. The last time we had an intern at a large company we were'nt really able to get them up to speed and then just cut the string in two months. I got a salary question for the folks in this thread. I received my Mechanical Engr. degree roughly 3.5 years ago. I have been working at the same company for 5 years, coming this Spring. (I finished my degree while working as a technician full time.) Any guesstimate as to what I should be looking at salary wise? I think I should be making around 72-75k(not including overtime and benefits) but maybe I'm being greedy here. I don't have my P.E., or my EIT although I'm working on it. Let's say I'm in the Gouston area.. Am I being too greedy here? It sucks that most Engineering companies don't have worthwhile salaries and benefits AND are fun enjoyable places to work.

Am I the only guy getting stuck with new hire wee-a-boos or is it just me? I'm only 30 but getting a tad aggravated by the younger new hires. One fucker is riding his father's coat tails, I asked him to do something and he delegated it to someone else. He and I are going to have a talk when he gets back. "Hey rear end in a top hat this is your loving responsibility, not X's. If you don't know how to do it, ask, that is fine. Don't pawn it onto someone else who is your senior, who is busy, when you're dicking around on facebook." Fucker #2 is okay when he's not making the most crass base jokes known to man. Dead baby jokes? Rape jokes? Gay jokes? Check check check. I really want to just knock his rear end out sometimes. New guy #3 I have not really had to deal with too much. Maybe he's got some PTSD or ADD being a former Iraq vet, but I can tune him out more than #2. A bit odd but hopefully in a few weeks he'll be manageable. He aggravates the poo poo out of #2 but I think it'll be okay cause it'll teach #2 some god drat patience. He did commit a couple of social faux paus when out drinking with the department on Saturday. Refused to chip into the beer fund or physically bring the beer but had no problems drinking from it. I swear too few people know when to shut up and listen, especially before they speak. So here is the biggest piece of advice to you fresh young college graduates: 1. Ask questions when you have them pertaining to work. 2. Don't eavesdrop or interrupt conversations unless you know the parties involved. 3. LISTEN before you speak.
