One resume tip that will help you land a job

Today i want to share one resume tip that has the potential to land you to a job. Yes just one tip, if followed can fetch you the interview call.

I have already talked about various tips no resume writing and sending, but there's one basic thing that can make sure you are called for the interview.

All you need to do make your resume two page long and keep only the stuff related to the job requirement.

Yes this is the only thing you have to do. Make your resume fit in two pages and keep only the relevant data. And take my words this works. The focussed resume has magic in it and if its done right, it will never fail in getting you an interview call.

Why it works? Will theorize on it in some other post, but for now try this when you send in your resume next time.

Try it!

My first test upon enterning the aerospace industry

My journey into the aerospace industry began with the training at nal. I was assigned under dr. Ramamurty of clocter division of nal.

In nal, my first task was to write a program or otherwise calculate the overall configuration of a micro gas turbine that generated 10N of thrust.

I guess this task was a test that my mentor put me through to test my gas turbine knowledge and programming skills that were listed in the resume he had. I successfully did my task and the c basic program i built for the task is still alive somewhere in my harddisk.

So what's the point. The point is you will always be tested when you join the industry. Be it at the training stage or in the floors of corporate.

So keep yourself updated and be prepared.

This was my experience, what about you? Have you faced any challenge? Do share in the comments.

Will you choose earth science as your major in m tech after aesi? Ask the reader

Today i heard something about someone from aesi. He passed aesi and was working in a reputed aerospace firm in bangalore. While at his job he appeared in gate exams and got through to one of the IIT's!

There in iit he got earth science as his major! The guy in question has already made his choice, but i want to put the questions to my readers what would you have done in similar situation?

Would you select earth science after aesi? Do share your comments. I would love to hear about it. I keep my response reserved until the next post.

MSc Engineering at Sheffield Hallam University Vs Other UK Universities

This is an email from bishnujee, it answers a frequent queery that i
get. So here you go.

Dear AeSI Engineers & Students,
I believe since many of you from AeSI must be slightly confused with
choice of UK Universities based on there reputation and past
record.There are some excellent Universities like Cranfield
University,Queen's Mary University ,University of Western
England,Bristol,Salford University,University of Sheffield.During last
few years based on Graduate hiring trend,I have noted that newer
University like Sheffield Hallam University which was few of British
Government owned University came into existence in 90s has been doing
pretty good on job after Course completion than some of the highly
rated University.There are some reasons behind it because when course
work was started as Approved Further Learning Programme (CEng) for BE
from AeSI & other Indian Universities ,it has full practical nature
and extensive Industry based coursework content instead of traditional
book work type of assignments & course work followed by traditional
Universities.Students in such
programme are quite mature at design,stress when they Graduate out
due to coursework nature.Each Student work individually as well as
part of team and develop on there own product & project,extensive
presentation skills and very high design and stress lab programme
groom them for career in Stress Engineer & Design Engineer.That is the
reason why MSc Engineers from SHU have captured jobs much ahead than
traditional reputed UK Universities who has still been sticking to
traditional coursework and studies.Please be advised that Cranfield
University newest MSc as Further learning programme might be falling
into same bracket .
Already SHU has 3 AeSI Engineers on its campus who have graduated out
with there MSc programme.
I hope it helps in guiding prospective AeSI Engineers.

Best wishes

How to use this blog effectively

As i am writing this from my mobile, so i have 5000 characters to tell my story.

As you know i've been writing about this blog since 2004 and ever since i am panting about aesi, amaesi, exam tips, results, study tips, nal, training, catia , nastran, ansys, cad, fem , resume, cover letters, requirements, interviews, gate, aerospace. The point is after about 630+ posts, its hard for anyone to find what is relevant for them, so i'll show you an url trick by which you can quickly find what you are looking for in this blog.

Http://my-aesi.blogspot.com/search?q=YOUR SEARCH TERM

this is the url you can use to search for stuff in this blog. I have written on innumerable stuff during my journey of aesi so just replace the last word and search the blog for anything that you want. It can be about gie, about natarajan sir, nal, training. It will be all there.

Hope this little hack wil help you to get more of this blog. Thanks for reading.

April blues

I have already anticipated that posting in april will take more
discipline, but now it wil also need more resource. I use airtel
mobile for my net connection. And today morning my daughter felt my
mobile was bit dirty so she threw the mobile in to the washing bucket,
thus limiting my net access. I don't know how long the nokia service
center will take to re ignite life in my primary phone. Till then my
old 6270 will be my mode of getting to net.

So what does this mean for you the readers. This means you will see
small posts for sometimes and formating and links will be absent.

AeSI's new website!!!

Have you visited aeronautical society of India's website lately. Well I did it today and pleasantly the sites design has changed...loved this design. Its more professional and the included flash slideshows are much better. The website is crisper but lacks all the contents that it should have.

Although you can find prospectus and all rules and regulations for AMAeSI out there.

you can find all the application forms related to associated with the AeSI
http://www.aerosocietyindia.com/course_details.html

Just a reminder AeSI's official website also include the syllabus for AMAeSI for section A as well as section B!!!

Before you hunt for Catia, Nastran, UG, solidworks, ANSYS etc training centers

Getting pretty good at things is merely a first step, but one that you need to take in order to be ready to spend the money to get great.

This is a quote from a recent post of Seth Goldin titled Why aren't you (really) good at graphic design?

Now what does that mean. Essentially what he says is that self learning should come before you shell out some money to the institutes. Before you hunt for Catia, Nastran, UG, solidworks, ANSYS etc training centers.

This applies more to AeSI students as we lack the facilities that graduates from other institutions get by default. With labs and dedicated tutors these things come as part of the curriculum. But for AeSI, your initiative is the weapon.

And you know what? Getting pretty good in catia, nastran or any other software, programming language is the matter of sitting with the software one hour each and every day. IF you can discipline yourself to put in that one hour.... your are on your way to be pretty good at that software.

Net is an abundant source. Google's technology is there then what is stopping you. Put in that hour.

Once you have done this you will not have much doubt to choose which CATIA training centre or NASTRAN training centre to go to get great in that software!!!

Explore or stagnate

Exploring is one of the best thing that i do in my work. Be it excel, the new fem software or the fortran language. Whenever i am bored or don't feel like work i begin my exploration.

It usually begins with a question, sometimes the question is silly and sometimes it relevant, but whatever it is, the question sparks the exploration. I try whatever solution i can think of, whatever comes to my mind. This way things lead each other and if all i do i just don't get the answer i am looking at then i get to net.

The net always has some answers, which always leads to some more questions. After a while either i get the answer i was looking for or learnt something new in the process.

Being stagnant none of this will happen. No new insight will come, won't learn anything new.

So don't be stagnant, keep exploring. Keep tinkering. Keep moving.
