Electrical Engineering Entry Level Jobs

Electrical Engineering Entry Level Jobs

Electrical Engineering Entry Level Jobs that is…unappetizing. I worked for 3 years traveling with an oil exploration crew learning about the business before I was transferred into the office. Three years later, my design was getting patented.

Everyone needs to do for an Electrical Engineering Entry Level Jobs and I mean everyone starts at the bottom and has to work their way up. Get a job, no matter how bad it seems just to stay connected with the industry. I was out of work a while back for 18 months. I tried to get every job possible and there were too many applicants! …. but this is an excellent time for you thought you may not realize it.

Have you ever thought about going into business for yourself? Your young and can afford the time and you should have the energy and the drive. There are many things that you can probably do. See the list below and remember that each of these can be a career or just a resume enhancer for you.

1. Write a smartphone app and sell it for $1.00 profit. The app can be any silly nonsense of a game, Bluetooth advertising for people in a mall that walk by. You will get your name out in the world, it is an item that you can use to enhance your resume….and you might make some money in the process.
2. Some technical magazines are always looking for a good article. Write about something that you know about. Explore the topic in your work….this could be a “how-to” type of article or idea that you have been thinking about.
3. Teach an introductory class for adult education in a local community college in electronics, math or some other subject that you feel comfortable with.
4. Get you name out. If you can afford it, go to a conference and ask at the booths if they are hiring. Leave a resume for them.
5. Take some online classes to make you a better candidate. I just finished up a “nano-degree” in Data Science from Coursera.org. I am sure that you could finish it faster than I did and it is INEXPENSIVE. Data Science with a technical background could help you go far. Companies are looking for Data Scientists is what I have been told.
6. Stay in the business by joining a contracting company. You will get experience AND money. Once you get a couple of years experience behind you people will start searching you out.
7. Along the same lines as 5 and 6, get a certificate of accomplishment, as an example, get your CCNA, A+ or something from some company, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Program Manager….etc. I hear that Microsoft is teaming up with edX to get some Professional Certificates of accomplishment. Coursera and edX are cheap!

I know this can be frustrating. I have been there myself. Do not give up. A technical degree such as Electrical Engineering can take you on a far different path than you can imagine. Enjoy the ride!
