 | I started a small company with a few college buddies 2 years ago. We mostly do drawings, designs and layouts for mechanical products and steel products. My mother called my a while ago and asked if I could help my brother out. He's 20, dropped out of college and doesn't know what he wants. So I arranged for him to come and live with me and I got him a great job as a mechanical designer. Most people need to go 4-5 years in college for that job.
Unfortunately for me he isn't doing a good job. Every time I walk by his office it's facebook, a flashgame or something else. I don't mind if people read a magazine to rest a bit or whatever. But I wonder how many hours of actual work he does. His slacking off is showing. We're only 6 people and my partners told me to talk to him. Cause the company is going great and we have a TON of work. If he's not going to step up then we need to hire someone who will. I've done him a huge favor but family is family and business is business. He's not a teenager anymore ffs. Being in this position sucks and I don't know how to deal with it?

 | I have my bachelor's in Industrial Design, and I have a job as a product designer. At my job I do a lot of engineering because I design culinary and kitchen products. I'm not exactly happy where I am in my job and see there are more career opportunities for people with engineering degrees vs people with Industrial Design degrees. Most people dont even know what Industrial Design is. Would it benefit to add a Mechanical Engineering degree to my Industrial Design background?

 | I am in first sem. of engineering in mechanical branch. I am concerned as the placements for mech. engineers dont look good when compared to other branches like Electronics, Computer Science, Info. Science. The newspapers also show a minimum of 7-10years experience for Mechanical Engineers.
I am an above average student. However the number of vacancies available scare the hell out of me. From a batch of 160 Mech. Engineers only 25 were placed. This is really aweful.
On the other hand is there anything more than academics that I could do to stand out from the rest :P ?

 | I go to a school that's not heavily recruited. But I'm still pulling a 3.9 GPA in ME. I want a hard job in engineering that will let me travel and make me think! For the time being I'd love to just get experience as an intern or at a part time job. Shoot - I'd even slow down my degree progress if I could land an interesting full time position. But I can't seem to find them - internships, part time, or full-time jobs. Everyone wants someone who has five or more years of experience.
Are you an engineer? Do you recruit them? What do you suggest? Thank you!

| Lots of people are intelligent but don't get on particularly well in school. I have a fairly high IQ, and I like learning things on my own, but I just don't like the academic environment. Unfortunately, so many jobs require degrees nowadays.
Maybe we can brainstorm some ideas? We're looking for jobs that require intelligence, but no degree.

| I'm a high school senior and I intend on getting a mechanical engineering degree in college. I plan on going to Indiana my freshman year in college (hopefully Purdue). What steps do I need to take so I can design (mechanically and visually) for example Corvettes, mustangs, camaros,911, m3,C63 ,GTR or any sport or performance variant car. I'm open to any automaker I just want to bring my knowledge of cars to college and build my skills to the fullest so I can make the fastest and best performing cars in the world! I will do anything it takes, even if it means transferring colleges, changing degrees, or even moving across the world.
