I don't think I can turn off the engineering part of my brain. When I go on family trips I have a spreadsheet showing, where we're staying, travel times, and destinations as well as a column for comments. I even factor in that some of my family members drive slower (and others leave late) so I have ...

Firstly, thank you to everyone who responded with the links and resources. I wanted to provide an update since I posted this. Since posting, I took some time away from studying completely just to give myself some breathing room and lighten the pressure since I just completed my master's. I shouldn't ...

Thank you for the idea. I haven't registered for an exam date yet because my application is still in review. Once approved I will set a date. ------------------------------ Daniel Bressler EIT, A.M.ASCE Structural Engineer Brooklyn NY ------------------------------

I just became eligible to start taking PE. I asked around what resources people used and found out how long people usually study and came up with a study plan. For some reason, I feel like I'm stuck and can't get motivated to start studying in earnest. I'll study a little here and there but I don't ...

Oscar Wilde famously said that 'with age comes wisdom'. The whole quote is actually, "With age comes wisdom, but sometimes age comes alone," but that's a topic for another day. I was wondering: Can the more experienced engineers please share some wisdom and life lessons they learned from their ...

I'd be curious if any students could respond to this prompt. What is something that you're looking for in an internship? Are you there to learn a new skill or are you there to understand what the "real world" is like? I think a healthy balance of the two would be the best solution but there are ...

KhaTu, A very good resume with a lot in there. I would comb through your experience" sections and try to be more concise with your bullet points. Your resume seems overwhelming when first opened. I made some edits but feel free to send it back again once you go through it. Here are some helpful ...

Hello S.Philip, Very clean-looking resume. Some of your bullet points can be written a bit better but I had to be really critical of your resume because it was already at a great level! Overall, there were a few word choices that I would change and move some things around but otherwise, good ...

Hey Julia, A very good resume. Michael pointed out below, be a little more specific about the work you did. This can make the reader more interested in finding out more and can also give a gauge of how much responsibility you had. I would also lead your bullet points with action words that further ...

I've heard of other engineers drinking tea as an alternative to coffee. My question always was: doesn't tea have caffeine as well? My guess is the caffeine intake is smaller so you can regulate your consumption and don't end up buzzing. Regarding drinking a lot of water, I don't do it as a health ...

Every engineering office has a respectable coffee room or machine as well as a water dispenser. A typical engineer coffee schedule: Start the day with a coffee from commuting and then replenish with an "in-house" coffee in the am. After noon, go on a coffee run to end the day. That's 3 cups of coffee ...

We often discuss entry-level interviews but have not touched on mid-level interviews. From the receiving end, what are mid-level interviews like? For entry-level positing the assumption is often that the applicant knows nothing and will be starting from scratch. What is the expectation for a mid-level ...

All the responses here have been great! Here is one tip that I used during my Entry Level interviews. I spent 10 minutes before the interview writing questions I had about the firm, workload, and such and I took that notepad out during the interview to take notes. This allowed writing any questions ...

Spending 8+ hours a day for 5 days a week with coworkers creates a type of kinship. We see our coworkers on a daily basis and often can tell if they're having a bad day or week. Even though Thanksgiving is over and Mariah Carey is playing at every department store I wanted to ask; In the theme of Thanksgiving, ...
