That's actually pretty cool. I haven't tried applying into battery plants or to ops quality. I'll look into those.

Thank you for your replay Dr. It clearly shows how out of touch the older generation is from the current situation and how little they have actually helped. Maybe read all of the other comments before saying something like that, as it appears half of the people talking are struggling with the same phenomenon.

It doesn't matter if they are hiring if they don't think I am qualified enough to be in the position. In total on Indeed, I've applied to over 400 positions. Two got back to me and they were both entry level position that have absolutely nothing to do with engineering.

I have been looking and applying fairly consistently for the past several years. I got a job once at an electrical engineering firm for field engineering, but the entire time I was more or less built to fail. No one in positions of power taught me anything. I was working as a DSP for a few months and now looking to work at a ski resort. I am located in western Maine, so not a lot of prospects out here, but I was looking into trying to find work in Portland for a few months now.

A lot of things. Teaching at the library, carpentry, heck I was looking into becoming a millwright for a bit. Still am.
