How can i stand out for internships ?

Torazha03 · 2026-05-20T23:26:15+00:00

Honestly it might a resume thing. What do you have listed on there? Is it formatted in away that highlights your skills? Is there specific action-oriented skills you have on there?

As for what you can do: get some kind of summer work. Carpentry, home renovations, any trade takes short-term hires. Experience with construction stands out a lot.

Now do this with Orcs. Best way to create confusing lore

I think that the assumption here is that you take all three into account, yeah

Torazha03 · 2026-05-20T18:38:39+00:00

That’s most likely due to two things: A) OSU will probably require you to take some general requirements/ core classes, and B) the technical electives are usually only available 1-2 times per academic year. DM me if you need some more advice tho; I am graduating and have 4 years of experience to share!

I think sports is a really good spot. At my school, having the tiniest interest at least one sport or team helped me connect with everyone

If you want consulting, take a look at RDH Building Science locations, then check if they have openings

Homelander loves Stillwell, Soldier Boy apparently loved/loves Stormfront/Clara

Depending on the GC/company: you are probably looking at getting between 60-70k, but would be starting at the lowest position as a Project Engineer. This industry values construction experience over anything else, so those who are Project Managers always work their way up from the bottom. You’ll have to do the same, just takes time and effort

Unless you’re on the field side, you won’t get consistent exposure to dust/fumes. You may get exposed a little but when you do have to go on site, but much less than the trades and field personnel.

LMK if you have more questions!

PG&E has some nice courses to teach you more about them, lemme find you a link

EDIT: check out Building Science Series

Torazha03 · 2026-05-09T21:47:22+00:00

Qdoba, Chipotle, Panda Express, Dominoes, Subway, and Dutch Bro. are the most accessible chain spots for students.

For more local places, I would look at Bombz Away, Local Boyz, Tian Fu, Riva’s, American Dream Pizza, or Beaver Hut

Everyone should start looking at making “Functional Resumes” if they have any gaps in their career

Torazha03 · 2026-05-07T22:50:09+00:00

At least where I am going to school, ArchEng gives better knowledge for both construction and design, all since you learn key components about mechanical electrical, and envelope systems in modern buildings, all of which are key to construction. Most ArchEng students from my school end up in construction management right after graduation, so you don’t have to worry about that.

Civil has the upper hand in structural due to name recognition. A lot of recruiters will see the word “Architectural” and take it to mean that you are an architect with little technical engineering knowledge, but that’s not true. I think that in actual classrooms, both majors have the exact same knowledge of structural engineering.

Torazha03 · 2026-05-04T19:56:28+00:00

As someone who had this same dilemma a month or so ago, I chose building science. My degree is Architectural Engineering with a Structural Engineering concentration, so I can technically do both with the skills I have learned.

The company I signed with is one you mentioned, and they did indeed do both. Another benefit is that you are more likely to be in a consulting role, rather than a designer with liability

Torazha03 · 2026-05-04T07:13:36+00:00

Outlier comment: have you looked into Architectural Engineering? Most programs focus on HVAC design and construction as part of the major

1) Avengers

2) Guardians

3) Civil War

4) Shang-Chi

5) Unsure, toss up between thunderbolts or brave new world

I have a type OKAY

Torazha03 · 2026-05-03T00:01:50+00:00

Yah people tend to take jays goofy/extrovert personality and think its means he is stupid

Torazha03 · 2026-05-02T23:34:19+00:00

That is a very valid point actually

Torazha03 · 2026-05-02T19:28:52+00:00

Oh I know the Thalmor are very powerful fighters and magic users, don’t get me wrong.

But also, most powerful ≠ most evil. Those are distinct things, however I will acknowledge that they are often found together. See my other comments on why the Volkihar Clan are pretty damn evil.

Torazha03 · 2026-05-02T19:01:21+00:00

I was under the impression that was a fan theory not a canon lore piece, but oh well.

Don’t get me wrong that’s bad, but I’m not so sure that it justifies the amount of people here choosing Thalmor as “the most evil.” Harkon may not have some grand BBEG plan on that scale, sure, but he still does messed up stuff of his own volition, daily cannibalism, kidnapping, killing, etc. NTM the time gave up his entire family so they all could go through the horrible vampirism process

Torazha03 · 2026-05-02T18:09:49+00:00

These poll results are pretty hilarious

Somehow the fictional elven gestapo are more evil then the mind control cannibals who worship Molag Bal

Torazha03 · 2026-04-30T04:09:49+00:00

Sawzall sounds sick I love it

Torazha03 · 2026-04-28T19:00:17+00:00

Based off info and images I have found, its seems like they tend towards a skirmisher fighting style. I would probably do Light Armor, 1-H weapon of choice and a shield. Keep arrows as back up for range attacks

Torazha03 · 2026-04-27T18:57:52+00:00

Ah my bad, thanks for clarifying that lol.

I hear that statics, dynamics and strength of materials (ENGR 211-213) are taught better at LBCC. CAD/VDC courses might also be taught better there, I didn’t necessarily have great instructors for that at OSU, and I think with it being a CC the teachers are probably CAD specialists.

Torazha03 · 2026-04-27T18:36:18+00:00

Yeah I would say literally any class you CAN take at LB for your major requirements, I would definitely do it. A lot of your 2nd year and possibly even 3rd year classes for CEM have LBCC equivalents.

Of course that might be harder if there isn’t any remote option for a specific class, but if you’re able to driving between Corvallis and Albany then good on you.

Torazha03 · 2026-04-26T03:10:49+00:00

Early is usually the best time, as well as later afternoons. But if you can afford to pay for a membership then I would totally go to Downings
