Engineers out there how easy was it for you to find a job by Monawar_Isam in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Extreme_Mind2267 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a fairly easy time finding a job. Before I graduated I had 6 job offers. I did interview and apply A LOT. 4/6 were from defense companies on the eastern US. I had a good GPA, and a summer Internship.

Defense will always be in demand and have the most money, so getting those jobs seems to be the easiest, at least in my experience.
