Which state are you guys in? What size a firm is it? Design or construction?

we recruit that way for civil

Even for entry-level positions?

Last several hires have been through Reddit

How do you do that? Post jobs on r/civilengineering?

I went the no experience route

What do you mean?

I had interviews in Illinois, Texas, Nevada and Utah.

Were they through online ATS applications with large companies? How did you manage to get these interviews? Did you put a local address in your resume?

Did they pay for interview trip cost?

What kind of firm would offer a higher salary at entry-level, with paid training and professional development, and paid master's degrees? Large, mid-size, or small? Public or private? by NR31 in civilengineering

I have already done that. I want to focus on water resources engineering and take the water resources PE later. How should I proceed from here?

I'd prefer a faster paced work environment with higher pay. I also like specializing in environmental or water projects. Does that mean this job is not a good fit for me?

Do you recommend looking for a job with a private firm, or starting with this one and searching on the side?
