Any Engineers out there
 

So, my Son graduated from the University of Maryland last month as an Aerospace Engineer. Job hunting has been tough in this economy with thousands of applicants for every opening.
He is looking for work in any engineering field, anything obviously involved in Aero or Airline etc. would be ideal but he can work in multi disciplines with his degree and is very open to to any suggestions any of you fellows might have.
He is a great guy and very smart, hopefully something opens up for him soon. Besides he eats to much for me to keep him here much longer:)

Boeing has been running adds down here for engineers in the aero field. they are expanding their facility at the airport two fold and building numerous off site facilities. It gets hot down here but at least we are a free state compared to Maryland and Jersey

I know 5-6 people who work for Gulfstream here in Savannah. All different levels of the company, all say it's a great company to work for.

I will my friend, thanks

He can also look into Electric Boat in Groton CT. We are always hiring engineers. He will have to apply online. Don't get too specific on the job description just something that fits his degree and resume'. New jobs are posted all the time. Follow up with HR to make sure his application is in the system and constantly get a status update from them. They tend to provide lip service and not always much action. Be a pita with them. Let me know if he applies. We can try to keep visibility of the resume once it is in the system.

The Navy yards are always hiring Engineers.

Yea Norfolk Naval Shipyard is supposed to hire 1500 new employees so my son in law told me. Check with them! Best of luck!!

Mitsubishi Power Systems is also in Savannah and hiring. they make turbines for power plants and are good company to work for. My son interned there this summer and loved the experience he wants to possibly try for an internship at gulfstream next year for variety but will go back to Mitsubishi if not. Good luck to your son!

I know a couple people that work here in NC for BE Aerospace and Hondajet.
