    Engineering Resume advice for Engineering/Physics Job Search

    I NEVER would have though about it like that. I was trying to make this resume "stand out" in the ATS ( Automated Tracking System). But I was not sure how effective it would show my education and skills versus my current position. I will try a slightly different order and work on the details.

    Engineering Job Hunting Concerns of a Physics to Engineering Graduate

    I have applied to numerous jobs in multiple states ( I am in the United States). I think the problem is that I really do not have any industry contacts that can help. I can not find any recruiters or the ones I have tried did not work out.

    Physics BS in Physics and absolutely no luck getting an entry level job
