Am I set up for failure?
I have over a hundred of application and I only get the attention for what feels like the wrong ones?
A little about me:
Have a clearance,
About to receive my bachelor's in aeronautical engineering technology from Purdue
Have military service (non engineering)
Have a couple years of work experience (admin/project manager roles)
Have an a&p certification in progress.
Im applying for more 3d modeling roles, as thats where I want to grow my career, not a mechanic role. I have not gotten any luck on the early careers or associates positions. However, a recruiter has reached out for a level 3 position and I wasnt selected by the hiring team, and now they are reaching out for a level 4. Its VERY CLEAR on my resume I have no actual real engineering experience. I have 3d modeling listed in my skills (as various program names) so maybe that could be confusing? I want to work at LM so incredibly much and I honestly would take any role they offer me, just as long as I get my foot in the door. This is truly my dream company and where I want to build my career.
Any advice would be incredibly appreciated.
