i currently work in a support group of civil engineers who manage waste for a large chemical manufacturing/mining company. i would consider any job in which you are working for a company that doesnt do your type of engineering as direct income "corporate engineering". we employ all kinds of...

I live in FL, and have offers in NC. My current job and both offers were set up through my professional network (friend who knew a friend who needed someone). And all 3 were not posted or advertised. I would lean on anyone you know in the areas you are looking to help you get in contact with...

Has anyone applied for licensure by comity in NC? Looking to apply as a recent FL PE... Tips/advice would be fantastic.

30k is an insult. I could get more as a construction inspector being directed by civil engineers. there are plenty of good, high-paying jobs out there. i currently work in a support group for a huge chemical manufacturer (waste management division), and our group could have salaries over 100k...

i still have yet to receive my virtual high five. it seems an slow clap will have to suffice.

True story: I got 3 emails from guys I didnt know and whom i had never met asking me to be a reference for their PE exam. One guy said "it's not like they check into it or anything. besides, don't you want to use your new seal?" awesome.

Network, network, network. I am a "young" engineer, though I have 9 years of experience (started as an intern at 18). The biggest asset I have had in career success is networking. With everyone and anyone. All day. Everyday. Though I have had 2 great jobs, my network has opened doors to 10...

I work in a civil support group for a large chemical plant, and our engineers make anywhere from 70k-95k (I started with little to no experience). The consulting world is tough, especially for people with only a few years experience (no contacts, no contracts). I have been able to hedge myself...

Dana-- I have worked with 2 very smart trans. engineers who both failed their first time, but passed the second. I am sure you will pass. From talking to them, its all about having the right materials handy during the test and knowing where the info is.

If i had failed: Start studying as soon as the depression subsided. Tear my eyes out with frustration waiting for the next exam results. Because I passed: Do absolutely nothing for a month or two. Enjoy my freedom.

Thanks. Much apprecited. I'm such a noob.

For those that took the civil/geotech test and didnt pass, I have a room full of books and references for sale. I will be very reasonable as I am moving soon and don't want to take them with me. I also have most of them as e-books. Email me if you are interested: [email protected]
