I often see engineering jobs listed as "Engineer I" or "Engineer II" in both job websites and salary websites. What do they mean, exactly? I know they relate to experience or pay, but are there any set definitions since many independent companies/sites use the designations?

Recently I gave interview for the position of embedded systems engineer. Their job ad clearly mentioned that only one position was vacant. The interview was successful and after the interview they asked for the joining date, the joining date is set to be 1st feb. But today I found out, that company is still holding interviews for the same position. It is puzzling me because their job of finding next engineer is already done. Then why are they bothering themselves with more interviews? Could it mean they can still replace me before I even get started with someone better? help me out please.

Hey, So I am currently doing Undergraduate in Civil Engineering. I will graduate in 2015 and plan to apply for Polytechnic Institute of New York University. I want to apply in Urban systems Engineering and management graduate program with minor in Construction management as an International Student. Has any one here got any idea of about this masters program ? Also My CGPA I will graduate will probably be around 3.68. Also, my gf wants to join Parsons The New School Of Architecture. She wants to do masters in the dual degree in Lighting design with minors in Interiors. Her CGPA while graduating should be around 2.8-3.0. Keeping in mind that she is also an International Student. Can anyone here please guide me with the following questions : - What are our chances to get into these universities. What advise, tips will you give us? - How can we later secure a job later in NY ? - What will be the job market look like, lets say in 2018 in these area ? - What is the scale pay in the U.S right now for Civil Engineers/Architectures. - What other recommendations would you like to give us. - Is there any good internship opportunities that we can get? Or apprenticeship to help us pay for rent and other utility bills? - We also would like to know what areas should we look to live in so that its equidistant from both the universities. - How much will be the living cost of an average couple there ? Serious answers will be highly appreciated. Thanks..
