[1 YOE] Quality Engineering looking to transition roles. Cannot get any interviews except one for SpaceX. (Southern California)
Hi, I'm a quality engineer working in Automotive looking for any improvements I can make to my resume so it will bypass most ATS and land me into other engineering roles. I'm okay with any other engineering role (preferably in Aerospace) except for field service, customer service, sales, and application.
The only place I landed an interview with this resume is with SpaceX for build engineer. So looking to leverage any small amount of experience I have to shift into another role. I'm pretty adamant about staying in SoCal so relocation is not something I'm interested in. Any improvement from career veterans would be appreciated.
I currently apply to most jobs, even if they are slightly lower paying than my current one.
Thanks.
