Hello all, my younger brother graduated in December with an Associates in Architectural Engineering. I know he's done some drafting, Revit, and Autocad. He also worked in surveying last summer.

He's been looking for his first job (mostly through professors recommending him to local companies), however he keeps doing several interviews and the being informed they no longer have the budget to hire him.

Would anyone have any advice on related industries that might be hiring right now?

Idk about general structural engineering but the transportation and infrastructure sector is booming right now - lots of hiring going on. He would be joining an industry that does not really work with architects though, and the CAD software is usually different. With that said, having a grounding in the field is a good start.

He could try recruiters or temp firms. I have a friend that does staffing for the commercial interiors / office furniture / facilities mgmt industries. Maybe a short term position could get him in the door somewhere.

Ooooof. We need drafters. Interested in civil? Does he know any Civil 3D?
