I've pretty much decided that I want to work in Austin after I graduate this december. I know, I know, I posted a jobs thread a few months back, but this is a bit more specific. I'm trying to find places in Austin to apply as an entry-level mechanical engineer. Thus far I've applied to:
Accenture Dell L-3 Motion Computing Motorola National Instruments Samsung Signature Sciences, LLC Texas Instruments URS 6 of those I've applied for specific positions with, the other 4 just submitted my resume in general. Any other suggestions? I've looked up some of the other big companies, but not found any relevant jobs. I'm sure there are places I'm overlooking. -------------------- |

Coolio, I always forget about newspaper listings. Craig's List.... eh... not so great for jobs from what I've seen. And I'll come drink with you and high five, but I probably won't get drunk.

They're one of the ones I haven't applied for a specific job with anyway. -------------------- |

Mkay, no NI then. It's good to have suggestions on where *not* to look too.

I'm just really hoping the interview I did this morning and stuff that I did with Occidental Oil and Gas pays off, I was really pretty impressed with that company and think it'd be a great job for me they had available...
In Grand Junction CO no less Which would be pretty sweet I think. -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

Oh yeah, forgot you were down there with us... They kept leading Ty and I on. Randy kept sending me e-mails with "we're interested and would like to bring down to Austin again" but then never sent me an invite down there.
