Information from hiring manager
1. We are looking for candidates who have a solid background of CAD knowledge whether from school or some industry experience. Some of the resumes received were architectural or unrelated to our industry and other candidates were better fits given their skillsets/experience.
2. I wouldnt say they can only have electrical experience, however that is the type of work they would be supporting if hired and it would help. Again, we found other candidates to be better suited if they had more experience primarily in electrical. Our primary software uses are, AutoCAD, AutoCAD Electrical, MicroStation and Inventor, so if there were candidates who didn't have one of those software applications then they were rejected.
3. We are targeting candidates with some sort of technical/associate degree.
4. We are primarily targeting CAD students/professionals. Even though the engineering students may have some experience/exposure, it is not their primary area of focus and usually not where they desire to stay in their careers
