Any mechanical engineers?
Hey guys,
Im currently in the army now, but am getting out this year. I am looking for a job as a mechanical engineer, so im gonna go to college for that. My question is how hard is to get a job in a place like Lingenfelter or Katech? Thats what I always wanted to do. Also what else do they look for as far as schooling goes?
thanks a million

I am currently working as an ME in the Aerospace industry... Id imagine you would have to look into each company yourself. There are lots of variables, depends if they are in need of employees, if they are looking for experienced people or recent college grads. My guess would be that these are pretty desirable jobs (I would LOVE to work for them), so the competition is gonna be pretty steep... do well in school!!

I am a ME student as well at Kettering University (Formerly GMI) and I would say that getting in with a name like those or Roush or the like is pretty hit or miss, but likely slim. Heck where you take your schooling can make a big difference. I know a couple of guys that Co-op at Katech and W2W and they were able to get those jobs at a young age because of being Kettering Undergrads.

I know of someone that worked as a co-op for GM and then back doored into Katech. Other than that, you usually have to some experience into the automotive engineering field or know somebody to get in.
With military experience, I'd look into DoD aerospace(Boeing,Lockheed,Grumman) if I were you. Higher paying, better locations available, and faster product.
