Engineering Career and Job Hunting Advice for January 2018 - RF CafeMany of the names in the bylines of career advice articles have become familiar; which can be good or bad, depending on the author.

For a lot of jobs, being labeled a "professional" is just a way to have yourself exempted from labor laws that guarantee you get paid for overtime. A few example are aerospace engineering and operations technician, air traffic controller, nuclear technician, and telecom technician.
