  • Ability to acquire EIT certification
  • Foundational understanding of engineering drawings, technical specifications, basic process-control concepts, instrumentation, electrical principles and project documentation

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
