Want a job as engineer....?

Well i used to Quality and Reliability Engineer...and trust i take a lot of effort and time to get to that position..the question is do want to be an engineer.. if yes follow the steps below, if NO, the h***l with it, consider it as knowledge sharing :)

Step 1
Decide if you have what it takes to be an engineer. To become a professional engineer you must have a college degree in engineering. Most university programs are selective and quite competitive. Earning good grades SPM or STPM.

Step 2
Decide what type of engineering interests you. There are many branches of engineering. While most programs tend to focus on general, core classes the first and second year of enrollment, many require students to enroll in a specific program regardless. Seats in each program are generally limited. If you maintain a high GPA, you can usually transfer from one program to another within the engineering department if necessary. It is still important to put some thought into what type of engineering interests you before entering your program.

Step 3
Look for and apply to schools with strong engineering programs in the area(s) that interest you.

Step 4
Get good grades in all of your classes once you are enrolled in a program. The first and second years are usually the hardest. Many students are required to take an above average number of credit hours and classes are tough. Outside employment is generally discouraged. Focus on your studies as much as possible. Your hard work will be rewarded in the future.

Step 5
Obtain a co-op same say LATIHAN INDUSTRI. Co-ops are usually offered the third, fourth and fifth years of engineering programs. Most co-ops are paid, some are not. They are usually very competitive, which is why receiving high grades in your course work is important. This is the best way to obtain valid, related work experience before entering the job market and can lead to future employment upon graduation.

Step 6
Seek the assistance of your university's Career Development Center as you near the completion of your program. They can usually help you with your resume, direct you to co-ops and internships and eventually help you apply for jobs in the engineering industry once you are qualified.

Step 7
Join a professional engineering society or association that caters towards your specific interest. Professional organizations offer many networking opportunities that are ideal for those looking for employment as well as further professional development.

but now i'm in another field..HR..hahah
