Hey all, I graduated with a master's in Nuclear engineering last summer after I've spent the last 10 years working as an engineer in a totally different field. I have'nt had any bites for interviews, etc I was just wondering if maybe some of the working nuclear professionals on here might just take a peek at my resume and tell me why you think I am not getting any interviews or if you think there is something I should do or add? Greatly appreciated, thanks!
####Personal Info
