    How much notice?

    That makes a lot of sense, and under some circumstances that would be the best thing to do. Unfortunately, my company makes employees sign an agreement to stay for a few years after graduation in exchange for help with tuition. It may be easier to find a job when you already have one rather...

    Does more "hands-on" work make a better design/manufacturing engineer?

    I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm in a different area of engineering, but I've been feeling the same way. In my case, the way to get "hands on" experience is to be on-site during building construction projects, or even to do some construction work. Having that kind of...

    Engineering Tech Grad & the FE exam

    How much notice?

    Well, I've given informal notice. Probably the biggest thing that the guys I work for have going for them is that they offer good job security. They aren't sleazy or dishonest, they're just poor at picking out and managing employees. I didn't think they'd fire someone who had announced they'd...

    How much notice?

    Hi, all- I'm a structural EIT who works for a small consulting firm in the US. I'm planning to either quit or take a leave of absence to attend graduate school in the fall. I started out at the firm as a drafter 8 years ago, earned my engineering degree while working full time, and was...
