In this session of The Engineering Career Coach Podcast, I am going to provide some tips to an engineer on how to ace the engineering job interview. These are tips I have helped engineers of all experience levels use to land great jobs.

“I am so nervous; I have always been nervous since I was a kid.” – Elvis Presley

engineering job interviewEngineers make some very basic mistakes when going through the job-interview process, one of them being focusing too much on themselves. The other common challenge is being nervous. Many engineers and other professionals are so nervous during job interviews that they don’t really show their true selves and personalities to the prospective employers.

In order to achieve your engineering career goals, you must be able to secure an opportunity when you either need one or want a new one.

The career-changing tip at the end of the show will help you improve the quality of all of your conversations.

Our guest for Session 10 is Sherry, a 25-year-old engineering graduate student.

Tips for a Successful Geographic Relocation in Your Engineering Career Part 1 of 2

July 24, 2012 By EMI

I have had the pleasure of providing career-coaching services to several engineers recently who are onsidering and seeking advice for successful geographic relocation in their engineering careers.

Therefore, I decided to write a series of two posts to assist those engineers out there that might be making (or considering making) a geographic relocation in their career.  This first post will give some tips for a successful relocation and for the second post I will interview an engineer who recently relocated from North Carolina to Alaska.

Tips for a Successful Geographic Relocation

I have never personally relocated in my engineering career, however I have talked to many engineers who have and formulated these tips/strategies based on their advice and recommendations: [Read more…] about Tips for a Successful Geographic Relocation in Your Engineering Career Part 1 of 2

5 Tips to Help Recent Engineering Graduates Land Their First Job

May 7, 2012 By EMI

5 Tips to Help Recent Engineering Graduates Land Their First JobI have received requests for advice from many recent engineering graduates for recommendations on how to get their first job, so I thought I would write this post to share some recommendations for everyone.:

1. Tailor your resume specifically to the job you are applying for.

I recently spoke at a conference where a hiring manager shared some very interesting with the conference attendees. He said that when he reviews applicant resumes, if he sees one that is customized to his company specifically he is much more inclined to interview them. I always tell recent engineering graduates, if you are applying to 10 different employers, you should have 10 different resumes.

2. Focus on the presentation of your resume not just the content.

In today’s job market most recruiters and human resource professionals’ look at a resume for 10 seconds or less due to the number of resumes they get bombarded with.  In those 10 seconds, the one thing they are certainly going to notice is the presentation of the resume.  How neat it is, and how professional it looks.  Bold important activities so that they jump out at first glance.
