Not so sure in which country you are but you are generally
Oil, gas and minerals, energy and utilities in few countries only
Paper and packaging
Defence and aerospace in US of course
Electrical...
As long as there will be big monopolies (in US) like the petrol/gas/fuel and car manufacturing industries, the likelihood of new technologies to emerge on a large scale and cost effective is minimal to zero.
No industry is likely to canabalize on there main stream of revenues without goverment...
yes it is common practice. Check with recruitment agents and will see that they tend to look for people from the same industry.
The reason I found is that they cannot weed people based on technical skills, ( most recruiters are similar to car or real estate agents) due to limited technical...
Hi turbokiwi
How much a professional mechanical engineer gets after lets say 10 years, what benefits etc
what kind of work you do in the mechanical field?
" to be or not to be "
sorry, the word "unemployable" is only in the lexicon of "charm school".
That's a label that has no substance to it in any way. The person might have certain level of knowledge or experience that fits a certain role level.
It is not right to put labels on people. The point is simple:
is...
how " BLACK BELT " stacks out in today s market vs engineers?
i see a lot of non engineers making the course and than becoming "experts" .
" to be or not to be "
depending on the type of business in engineering you DONT NECESSARILY need a PE.
oNLY if you have to sign some documents as a consultant. Most of the time if you dont deal with the public dont worry about it.
" to be or not to be "
Soon to be, Mc Donalds will print a diploma : "Bachelor of Science in Grilling" made in USA.
nO different from all the technical colleges that make there own bachelor degrees all around the world and are now called universities.
you are likely right
without a system like H1B in the marketplace the pay for engineers drops/declines as laws of supply and demand kick in.
It makes it easy to recruit, ie lower costs and better choice, great news for businesses.
Not that great for employees
Also, is great for outsourcing
I choose 3xL size for my shirts.
I haven't gone to charm school as I run out of money, and also I didn't liked the crowd either, was not engineering material, hhahaahah,
Nevermind, now a days I make, not seek engineering jobs.
I hired, some folks in the past that went to "charm" school, but...
no worries mate, I have no plans to go or work in Canada. I traveled extensively with my work and h've seen all almost first hand.
No thank you
I am happy with what I do and where I do it. I made myself privileged to choose what I do, for whom and whom I am hiring.
Cheers
I would only choose to live and work in a big city like toronto. I worked few years in small towns and regardless of money IT IS NOT WORTH IT.......
Plenty of reasons why not:
have to relocate again when the job finishes
no options to seek another job so pay value diminishes
limited options...
In New Zealand the engineering market is weak and low tech. pay is no great either.
Recognition is poor and everybody is an engineer even the hammer boy.
The only field where seems to be some activity is civil engineering as money comes from goverment budgets.
Everything else is basic...
When I was a student, I new that mobility of engineers is or should be easy. Considering that engineers do technical work merely, than numbers are numbers all over the world. By numbers you can see a good engineer.
Nowadays ,we have the issues of cultural fit, communication, language skills...
What can be said on the above? Should I complete a Mechanical Engineering Degree instead? I wonder which will provide better opportunities down the road, and would it make it easier to land the first job?
