Great context. Nowadays companies want people to come in and hit the ground running. Small companies lack the funding to groom and train employees. I recommend start at a big company. Small companies are high risk.
Hey man, I just want to say thank you. I appreciate everything you do this really help me out
No problem. Glad these videos help. Thanks for supporting my channel. Plan to post more soon
Good interview, as a Collins employee, agree with the feedback being shared!
Sounds like he’s talking about automated tape laying and automated fiber placement robots… very cool!
Thanks for making this video!
We want more this kind of videos
Your RUclips channel is best
Good one
I want to go into aerospace. But I have only a year of experience in the gas industry. Graduated in 2020 and have a B.A. in mechanical engineering. Have you heard of people jumping from gas industry to aerospace?
It's always possible to switch industries. Its much easier to do it earlier in your career than later for sure though. Aerospace is very board in general so I would recommend looking up an Aerospace companies you want to work for and searching for mechanical positions within those companies. Then you can try to slide into an aerospace position within that company once you're hired. I recommend learning a specific skill that you're interested in outside of work. For example rocket propulsion systems. Take an online course and do a project related to that to get experience. Companies will want to see that you have some relevant experience. Even if it's just a hobby outside of work.
How do you spell design software? TIA?
Do you think someone that struggles a bit in math should try to get a degree in Mechanical engineering or Aerospace Engineering?
Hello Adrian,
I understand your concern. I would say yes you can still pursue engineering even if you struggle with math. You are just going to have to put in extra work to harness the math skills necessary to pass your courses. I suggest reviewing topics that you struggle with by watching RUclips videos and learning how to study properly. There are many useful tips on how to develop fundamental maths skills online. Also check out the math for dummies books at Barnes and nobles. I’ve used them and they are great. They have them for each math topic. God bless.
I currently work for Collins Aerospace as a FireX Mechanical Assembler. I Want to make money and growth and I want to go back to school for engineering. How hard is it to do?
Engineering is difficult but it just requires hard work and consistency. As long as you don’t give up you’ll make it through. Just do your research on and try to find online programs. You don’t have to go to a large university and get into debt. Most courses are online now and you can learn things by teaching yourself.
