Hey everyone, I recently resigned from a consulting startup due to some financial promises, like performance bonuses, that were withdrawn at the last minute. I was struggling there anyway, so I decided to leave. Unfortunately, the job market is really tough right now, and my UK visa is expiring soon. I'm feeling uncertain about how to handle this situation and would appreciate any advice. For context I have 3 years of experience and a Master's from the uni of Birmingham

What is the most useful technical or soft skills for any mechanical engineer to have where you work? I’m curious to know what really matters for everyone and what makes a big impact on the team and business.

Specifics if you can; CAD tools, simulation, CAD speed or proficiency, industry or standards knowledge, GD&T, certifications, Microsoft Excel, presentation skills, technical writing, project management, self organization, great communication, teaching ability, relationship building, etc.

Can anyone recommend me insightful books which can help consulting/career but not with titles like “how to be a successful manager” etc.

I have been searching for job from quite a long time and all I have seeing HR/Panels asking for
1. Number of implementation projects done.
2. Work experience on S4 Hana.

And if I don't have atleast any one of these, I will not be considered.

Is it really that important ?

Being joined as a fresher - Is it really something that I can decide whether to be in support or implementation project ?

Is upgrading of ECC to S4 Hana in my hands ? And the difference is really that vast ?

Few tips for looking at exits:

1) Referrals are a huge tool for getting your foot in the door. At Facebook it guarantees that atleast your resume is given more than a glance.

2) A well constructed story/resume can offset any weak points in your experience
