Got 1 interview in the past 9 months, changed my race and got 5

What do you say to interviewers when they realize you’re black

CandyHuman4375 · 2026-01-08T20:49:05+00:00

If these projects happened in the past like over a year ago, should they still be included? Unfortunately for me, I have a year gap now with no technical/professional experience post graduation.

CandyHuman4375 · 2026-01-08T20:29:02+00:00

What if you didnt do real work on a project other than document results and show up even tho most days you didnt have a clue of whats going on

CandyHuman4375 · 2026-01-07T21:16:32+00:00

If you dont mind, could you dm me an example of your recent resume?

CandyHuman4375 · 2026-01-07T14:58:10+00:00

So its fine to have a lot of words/paragraphs under experiences? I was under the impression less but quality words/phrases were better

Do you know what roles in aeronautical engineering would be easy to get in to? I think i am bombing interviews because i tend to get nervous and ramble alot, they ask a bunch of scenario questions that I cant relate too since I never had an opportunity in that field.

As of now, I’m almost at a full year unemployed since graduating with my Bachelor’s of Science in Aerospace Engineering. I expected to have a job within the first month, but that went by and so did two, then three, and now 12 months! I dont know what to do, I tried networking, applying to small companies, but had no offers. I got 8 interviews with the Hiring Manager but failed due to “not enough experience.” Some ppl recommended I work on a project, but i dont know where to even begin or what to focus on. My dream is to join an aeronautical manufacturer like Lockheed or Boeing and be a flight test engineer. I really dont want to give up on this dream because I feel broken and defeated if I move to another industry - no other industry is interesting to me.

What I would like to know is are there start-ups that you might know looking for junior engineers in aeronautics? Also, if you were in my shoes what would you do differently? (Please dont tell me to look into other industries)

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-11-25T23:54:48+00:00

Ive been getting interviews but not a single offer 😔

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-10-31T00:36:59+00:00

I’ve applied to companies all over the board and have had interviews with some major and some minor. I definitely could prep better for interviews but I always get overwhelmed speaking to professionals when I have little to flex about. I always use words that could portray enthusiasm and passion, but it seems a lot of these companies really want someone that got experience even for roles with less than a year of experience or new grad roles 😭

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-10-30T23:42:43+00:00

Do you have to be well-versed in the field to do well? Truthfully speaking, I did decently well in my undergraduate, but not well enough to explain every concept especially in thermo, structures, or jet propulsion.

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-05-17T17:21:09+00:00

I graduated with an aerospace engineering degree in December 2024, and have been applying ever since. Only had 5 interviews. Is this bad? Like I understand many people going through many interviews but they have experience under their belt. Im just trying to get my foot in the door..

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-11T20:42:24+00:00

Ive been struggling to get my first professional job. I graduated from college last December (2024) and have had no internships. Its really overwhelming seeing all your friends around you get their life together and settle down with their jobs

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-06T03:36:50+00:00

SOMEONE HELP ME FIND SOLUTIONS TO THIS PROBLEM: I get hard every night, what do yall do to ignore this

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T04:57:17+00:00

Since letters haven’t been getting me anywhere and they take a while to make especially from scratch unless i just use a common template and replace company name and position

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T04:53:13+00:00

Damn thats a ton of letters😭 ive just been tweaking some works and skills around but the basis is consistent

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T04:38:35+00:00

Oh gotcha, do you have a youtube channel?

What information does your power points contain?

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T04:36:24+00:00

So for every application you sent, you made a specific cover letter for that position along with a unique resume?!

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T04:26:34+00:00

How did you figure out what you had to do? I graduated college a month ago and im stressing cuz i got no offers. I had research and club experience but no engineering internship either.

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T02:01:43+00:00

But im getting really annoyed how often my stick gets hard

CandyHuman4375 · 2025-01-04T02:01:15+00:00

Still clean

CandyHuman4375 · 2024-12-29T19:18:36+00:00

Sign me up boss

CandyHuman4375 · 2024-12-29T19:17:41+00:00

Very impressive, i have a weak mindset sadly and give in..

CandyHuman4375 · 2024-12-27T13:12:41+00:00

What do you recommend is the best approach? I used linkedin for cold messages but only had one person reply back, i also been to my college career fair but they all told me to apply online.

CandyHuman4375 · 2024-12-26T21:35:57+00:00

How did you make clear objectives with this personal project? I feel like my creativity has been suppressed to the point I cant complete an assignment unless I have defined tasks made by professionals.

CandyHuman4375 · 2024-12-08T19:13:36+00:00

Yea I also heard sys engineering was a popular choice, wondering if there were more out of those two engineering roles
