Re: Regarding prepartion

First of all you must decide what sort of thing you want to do, i.e. Chip design, remote control, high voltage power supplies. . . Once you have settled on a line then figure out which company would best make use of your services, then read all the books, magazines, trade articles about these companies and YOUR SPECIALITY subject. This does not preclude you for trying to get a job with another company in a different line, but it will at least demonstrate that you know something about something and you are not just an exam passer. Also there are more companies making more stuff then you can research in an average lifetime and until you see the advert you will not know what different lines a company may try to get into. So a garden tool maker may want to try a high voltage weed electrocutor or some such gizmo, if you know about HV then you could get a job, but I bet you would not think of applying to them at first.
