You didn't fail math, you were just scared of it. Lol.

Didn't realize how many engineers and "almost engineers" we had here. We should start an EngineerZ club.

Blades, we ought to meet up at one of the Mid-A get-togethers. I don't know of any internships right off hand, but I have contacts with some local companies and organizations.

Haha, I'm just ribbing you. The market for CS guys is much better than it is for EE guys right now anyways.

It's all good, br0. My best friend and his bride-to-be are both big shot engineers. I have mad respect. It's not easy!

I could use a new job. Anyone hiring around here that needs someone with 4 years of project management experience??

Nice, there's quite a few engineering/cs people around here from what I can tell. I'm a DSP/wireless engineer. I wouldn't really say that the job market is worse for EE than for CS, especially if you got your masters. I was interviewing for work fresh out of grad school two years ago right when the recession hit and had no problem getting a job. Some of my CS buddies struggled for a bit around the same time.

That's really the key. I'd really rather not go back for more school, at least not until I've got some more time working.

Except for the place I'm currently working, all my offers have been for non-engineering positions, mostly quant work at banks.

I'm thinking about working for about a year or two and then going back for my masters once I have a better idea of what I want to specialize in. Hopefully whatever company I'm working for will help pay for graduate school.

Big big BIG money in quant modelling if you're good.

I noticed. All the offers were outta control, but they wanted me to go to NYC. Kind of negates the point of the extra money.

Are you gonna be at the next MD meet? I will see you there if you decide to go. I appreciate the help.

I was gonna go to the job fair they're having this week, but those things are completely useless for summer internships. In the fall they tell you to come back in the spring. In the spring they just tell you to apply online. Some companies don't even take resumes there. Last year we weren't even allowed to shake hands
