So about me
I am a physics and aerospace engineering major at a big 10 school.
I have 3 years of internship experience in science and technical fields.
I always have outstanding reviews from supervisors.
Marginal gpa
Since adding my aerospace engineering I have been applying to internships for the past 5 months (100+ applications) and haven't heard back from anyone. I have applied everywhere from big aero companies to small engineering firms, and I haven't even got a phone interview. I am upset I don't even get a chance anywhere.
Is engineering really that hard to get a job in?
Given that, if I were to ever get a job, engineers seem to be treated worse than any other employee in a company.
So what should I do?
Are there careers where any amount of hard work and cleverness pays off, is business one?
Am I alone on thinking this?
And if not then why do smart people ever pursue engineering?
Have I been tricked?
