Hello everyone, I've just joined this board, and thought I'd ask a question I've had for quite a while now.
I am a Canadian citizen, currently finishing my second last year of Electrical Engineering & Management at McMaster University (Canada). Given the state of the economy, I think it would be a good idea for me, as I near my graduation, to look for jobs in the US and Canada. I was wondering if anyone knew good sites for power engineering job hunting? Or a listing of major Nuclear Plants and other Power Generators and transmission companies that I can apply to individually through their sites.
It's a bit easier to find in Canada, since most Generation is provincial government owned, so every province more or less has 1 major provincially-owned company which owns most of the generating stations and transmission lines. That doesn't seem to be the case in the U.S., and I am finding it hard to locate any companies which actively hire electrical engineering new-graduates every year.
I have a 12 month and a 4 month co-op that I've done in transmission and power generation.
