Hello
I am new in the forum and I am very exited to see an Engineering forum where people actually reply to the posts.
My situation is this:
I studied Environmental Engineering in Colombia. After my graduation I worked for a year as a HSE department manager in my country. After that, came to the states (legally for those who might ask) and it has been terribly difficult for me to find a job in the engineering field. I had to settle for different jobs like file clerk, tutor and assistant store manager because our financial situation.
My question is, should I include experiences like assistant store manager and tutor in my resume? or maybe just explain the gap in my cover letter?
Is been almost two years since my last "real" job experience.
I would appreciate your advise
