   Rubbish you won’t have anything to take along – go and BUILD something to take along!
   Take your thesis project documentation along at the very least.
   I’m thinking of maybe another Interview tips special, so stay tuned…

   Fantastic tips. I’ve found you just have to work harder over a longer period of time to climb the engineering ladder. However, you can be more respected because you understand your work rather than assuming your academics will prop you up.
   I have an AS and design SMPS and audio equipment for my own business. I work a day engineering job for fun(!)

   Hey Dave, fantastic tips for interviews with real engineers. Unfortunately, quite often with large companies, you will be screened by recruitment agencies and they have all kinds of psychological mumbo-jumbo they’d take you through.

   They’d probably be horrified if you took apart the company’s product! Who knows how those guys would react… I know if was interviewing someone though, it’ll show that he knows his stuff and isn’t just puffing out hot air.
