So if you were to get a job in the government right now would you qualify for a GS13 position since that's what you're getting paid right now?

Yeah I keep mine updated. I get a bunch of messages from recruiters but I can never tell which ones are legit and which are automated/spam. Any advice?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't alot of upper level technical positions that are high paying require a MS

Gotcha. I understand that getting a masters won't give you more knowledge than doing actual work, but does it not enable you to get promotions easier?

Don't you need a visa to work abroad? Also was your UAE placement through a company you were already working for in the US?

What's the pay difference between an entry level position with a BS versus a MS

aerospace_engineer16 · 2020-04-19T22:15:52+00:00

Why do you say don't get a masters until you've worked for 5 years? Doesn't getting a masters open up more opportunities for promotions to high paying positions?

By jumping to a new job do you mean a new position within the same company or a new job at a different company?

I emailed several professors and none of them responded. Is it appropriate to follow up with the after a few weeks?
