Well, I got laid off from my mechanical drafting job. I used AutoCAD 2007 to perform HVAC draft jobs doing a lot of ductwork and pipework drawings for buildings. I've done 3D modeling and floorplans and electrical work too, so i'm pretty rounded with the program and editing.

Now I just have to find a job that is hiring, since my last job couldn't keep me. I know Vadriven isn't Monster.com, but why not try it, too.

Keep in mind that i'm a full-time student looking for part-time work. If you know any places in Virginia Beach or areas near that are hiring/flexible shoot me a PM

 

AMSEC.com

It's shipbuilding but they're looking for AutoCAD people...

 

Talk to your university engineer department (assuming you are also a engineer student) and ask them about job internships. You get college credit while you are making money.

 

thanks. where are their local offices? is that in newport news?

 

i'm actually not currently an engineering student, so I wouldnt have much luck with that.

 

what are you going to school for? cadd?

 

I'm doing the same thing, Jarrod. I can't find any flexible/part time ones around here so I'm pretty much stuck at the bike shop for a while. I'll be at ODU next semester so fuck having a full time job with that.

 

It's hard to get a part time job using cad. I had a job that i was going to get with the city of newport news doing cad work part time. Maybe vbeach has something like that?

 

no. i did cadd since i was a sophomore in hs. i went to the vb atc for it for two years and then i got a job part time with it because of other pursuits/college. i'm not setting cadd to be my career now, though. however, i do have the experience with it, and want to utilize it part-time where i can draft and use what i know for a company in need of solely that.

 

yea i worked part time at pace collaborative drafting. it just wasn't abiding with my college schedule.
