No degree necessary, but some electronics experience would help. My company really likes prior or retired military, but we have had some guys that just had aircraft or aviation experience.

What kind of electronics experience?

I'm probably not even a candidate - I'm just a college student, but I've always wondered how people got these kind of jobs.

Would love that type of job, but I'm not much of an electronics guy.

Guess I can become a gold farmer as an alternative lol

What exactly does "a some electronics experience" entail? I'm just asking by the way, 'cause I live in Argentina, and that would be one hell of a commute.

You would be surprised at the size of some of the people that get in and out of that thing. :wow

I'm pretty sure that the "hiring committee" would drool at someone with networking experience. Although there's not a lot of use for it, when it does come up, we old timers aren't as adept as we'd like to be.

Maybe they'll let you borrow one of the T-38s from the base to fly home in. If you fly at mach, you can probably get home in a few hours. Unfortunately, you'll have to stop and refuel about 20 times.:lol
