Seeing videos like this is honestly so insane. Tamer has probably the most stacked resume any mechanical engineer could have coming fresh out of college, and yet he gets turned down left and right. Really makes you wonder how impossible it’ll be to land a good ME job out of college
I mean, he hasn’t worked at a company for longer than like 2 years. He hops around a lot or is laid off. Shit luck but doesn’t look good on a resume. My coworker had 5 years of work experience , got his masters from Stanford in ME, and couldn’t find a job for almost a year
Yes please, as an engineering student you have made me realize what a massive void I have when it comes to experience and how to handle these real world problems in the engineering job hunting process. Thanks again for the quality content!
boys and girls if you want a high paying job fast, go into utility power. Work on boilers, gas/steam turbines, solar and wind. There are tons of people retiring and they are hiring like crazy. Its not as glamourous as tech jobs like tesla, apple, and the like. But I have 100x less of an impressive resume than Tamer. I graduated with a 3.0 GPA with an engineering technology degree and no creator portfolio or anything like that. Starting base salary is 71k work from home/ traveling to sites and that's on the relative low end.
YES PLEASE POST UNCUT FOOTAGE!! this video has helped me a lot in preparing and thinking of what questions might be asked and helped me make my own answers listening to you. I feel like in the interview environment, no one shares anything and it can be hard for people who have never been to these panels and have no idea where to start
The truth is you get better the more you do. I’m on my 2nd job out of school now and I only prep for the technical parts in interviews. The best advise is to talk to them naturally and don’t give robotic answers a lot of these people care about “fit”.
@@therealg4197yeah i understand but, there's nothing wrong with sharing past interviews and learning without losing a good opportunity. there's no need to compete, this aint high school
@@patriciacortez3815 the realG speaks facts, you will certainly bomb your first few interviews and no amount of prepping can save you. The best you can do is try and read the job information and make sure you vendor your answers to what they're looking for. Just try to do your best to reflect and grow from every interview.
Don't give up Tamer! Your motivation is extremely inspirational. I have never seen anyone with so much drive to get employed after so many rejections. I know a company will hire you soon and be grateful to have you on the squad. Keep up the good work, and thank you for showing us insight into what it's like being an engineer after school. It is great to see coming from an engineer in school right now. ❤
Tamer, thank you for keeping it real and sharing your true experiences job hunting. It’s refreshing to see someone on UA-cam not fake their experiences. I’m also very impressed with the level of patience and persistence you have dealing with these companies 😅 (coming from a fellow engineer)
I would love to hear the uncut footages of your interviews. As a student pursuing engineering, I think it will be great way to hear what kinds of questions companies ask in the future. Thanks for this helpful video!
Thank you for sharing your job-hunting process, Tamer. I was laid off at the end of the year last year and it's been a very hectic process landing in a new job. Somedays, I literally lose hope but I keep gridding knowing somewhere out there will be a light at the end of the tunnel. Please keep sharing your journey and fill us with more engineering content. Love from Europe
You may want to change your approach. Check the prospect out 1st, then tell them what they need in the way of your experience. Try it!!! It did work for me. Just commenting.
You are awesome dude. You’ll find a job soon. Whoever hires you will be extremely lucky to have you on their staff. You know your stuff, your attention to detail is legit and you are thorough. Good luck buddy. Keep making that UA-cam money.
It would be cool to see the raw interviews.. especially for young starters like me who would start engineering..We would get the idea of what pressure would exist and prepare the 4 years with effort
YES LOVE THIS. VIDEOS LIKE THESE HELPS AS SUPPORT FOR THE REST OF THE PEOPLE STRUGGLING AND GOING THROUGH THE NITTY GRITTY DETAILS OF FINDING A JOB. KEEP UP WITH IT TAMER!
This video was awesome, I was hesistating on whether to watch or not as it is 15 mins, but you never disappoint with the 'informative' content! Your skills in CAD are unmatched, Wish you the best, man!
If you are ever looking for Solidworks for cheap they have a maker license for personal projects and hobbyists at $9.99 /month, and it would probably be fine to use for a "design challenge" since you arent making any products for sale
I wish you the best of luck habibi. I am a huge fan of your videos. As a struggling Syrian Engineering student at YorkU who has been trying at it for a while now, your videos have given me a great perspective on what to expect when it comes to majoring and choosing a career in Engineering. It's disheartening that after all the tough undergrad years, grads still have to go through a lot of hoops to land a decent position. I wonder if Engineering is still worth it nowadays. Nonetheless, keep up the great content and I'm sure your long awaited opportunity is on the horizon.
YESSS!! please, we want to see the uncut footage of your interviews, it does help a lot to understand how things are done, and it would be very insightful if you would share some tips on how to prepare for the interviews.
Seriously, i look up to you man, all the effort you put in your career inspires me but watching those companies rejecting you terrifies me as well because i have 0 experience (I also wanna be a Mechanical Design Engineer). Great video
Man I really hope you get a job soon bro, you’re totally deserving of it and all your hard work shows! I’ve been following up with your videos on interviewing for jobs and as a current engineering student, it’s low key stressing me out seeing the shear amount of effort it takes to complete all these design projects and prep for all these interviews. Do you have any advice on how to prep myself technically or mentally for job hunting once I graduate?
Tanner, you killed it on every single one of those interviews. Honestly, they just missing out on an excellent opportunity! You are awesome. Good luck on finding your ideal job. I worked at an enterprise company making armored vehicles where our project lasted for 6 months and built 15 to 250 vehicles. It was exciting and fast paced. I loved your Apple packaging example, kudos! There were cutbacks last June 2023 and I have been looking for a job for 6 months. I could retire, but things are still interesting as there are so many different opportunities I still might like to do. I also worked for a big automotive OEM for 40 years and each new model would take 3+ years. The initial designs were done with CAD modelers, so I never got to develop my CAD skills on CATIA. They limit licenses to Teamcenter/Solidworks/ANSYS/NASTRAN/CFD..., although there specialists to do that when required. I could only direct the designers concepts and feature details early in the program. Most of it in boring bureaucratic meetings/beatings to get parts sooner for prototype builds and cost saving projects. You could not refine the design to make something better; unless there was a 'failure' and you had to go thru the governance process.
I have never been more intimated of an interview in my life. I am starting my bachelors as a mechanical engineering student this fall. I can't imagine myself answering questions this direct and efficiently not to mention the complicated course related questions.
@@Resistor-u7e It's arguably the best university in Canada where big name brands like Google, Tesla and Apple hire students from U of Waterloo for their internships and hire them permanently after graduation.
Thanks for the video. I'm back in school for mechanical and aerospace after working as a mechanic for almost 10 years. I have fears about changing careers so late in life but my body just cant handle being a Tech anymore 😅 This gives hope and aspirations 🤩
I don’t usually post comments but I just have to say man your videos lately have been incredible. As another mechanical engineer also poking around the market, these have been super super insightful. Best of luck
6:54 just before start of the video, i asked in one of the comment thread, if they wanna leave this 💩 job 😅 and you just answered. Thanks . You inspire 😊❤
Favourite sensor is a great question to weed out low experience and the low passion. My answer to it would be sensor brand/manufacturer for no one sensor can do all but manufacturer that offers easy access tools to help you find and configure the right sensor for your application is more important. This is why i love Endress
Before even watching the video, ive been looking forward for this video since the last " What Really Goes on in Engineering Job Interviews? ". Thanks Tamer
If you're willing to move across the Atlantic to Europe you have less problems with finding a great job as a mechanical engineer. In the Netherlands there is a great demand for good mechanical engineer mainly in the high tech sector (semicon).
I’ve. Been an ME in the Bay Area for 7 years now and I couldn’t answer any of those questions right now 😂😂 haven’t looked at a stress strain curve since 2014 lol
Brother the reason for rejecting is you not willing to "burn the midnight oil". "More experience working for small company" = "willing to burn midnight oil". Good for you to prioritize work-life balance and not compromising too much! You sound like a really competent engineer. Good luck for the job hunt.
Yes I would love to see the raw uncut experience for interviews. I am in coming freshman into university going for aerospace engineering, and I would like to gain some experience in understanding how to handle these questions and the process itself. Thank you for the great content and I wish you luck in the applications for apple!
raw, uncut footage of the interviews would be clutch my guy. A lot of us here freak out over the idea of answering a technical question that requires knowledge of things we forgot years ago: equations etc
Thank you for the time you spent and for being willing to share these incredible experiences. شكراً لك على الوقت الذي قضيته وعلى استعدادك لمشاركة هذه التجارب الرائعة.
i would love to see the raw footage of one of your interviews , as someone thinking about going into the field of mechanical engineering I would love to know what i should expect
Wow, that being late sure gives me a deja vu. I've had an interview like a few weeks ago where they set up a meeting on Teams and just randomly delayed it like 2 hours, half an hour before the actual meeting without saying anything and even after that the guy was late another 15 minutes. A pretty bad sign, and so was the rest of the interview so I ended up rejecting the 2nd round. But it's quite a roller coaster experience to do job hunting nowadays.
I really liked the robotics startup interview questions and tasks through several rounds, except the last part where they rejected your without explaining much further. Rejections are hard, but I think to hire a candidate for a startup with that type of experience and skill level, this type of interviews show really good ways, less technical and more behavioral, as it is important to fit this people with company culture and grind together in earlier stages.
احلى شي في الفيديو فاجأني لما تكلمت مصري حسيت بإنتماء لأن من اول ترم في الهندسه وانا اتابعك والان باقيلي اخر ترم واتخرج ❤😂 يعطيك العافيه ع كل شي تقدمه لنا.❤
Go work as a "contract to hire". There are many recruiting agencies who hook you up with a company. They hire you as an engineering contractor where they "test" you for say 1 year and if they think you are good, they hire you as an employee for that company. A lot of big companies are doing this because 1. Hiring an engineer can be a long, tedious, and expensive process. Sometimes, the company needs someone working like yesterday. This is good because 1. You dont do a lot of tedious 4 rounds of interviews (maybe like 2 only) and they hire you immediately afterwards. They test you out for 6 months or a year and if they like you, they hire you. Look for agencies with good conversion rate. Where almost everyone gets hired by the client. While your working there, if you notice that you dont get along with your coworkers and hence you KNOW you will not be getting hired... Well... You have until the end of your contract to get another job! So while your job hunting, youll be working and getting a paycheck! You wont be stressed because hey... You're still employed and getting paid! Also! You are working so your getting experience and shows the interviewer that you are "employable" (for some reason, companies look down on UNEMPLOYED people. Its cruel, unfair, and I do not agree with it, but they do it. Thats why its easier to get a job while employed. Being unemployed creates a negative image on the interviewer's mind, even if its for a valid reason! Also, contractors can get paid really well since you get paid overtime unlike salaried people!
Yes please, as a mechanical student will graduate this May, I had done a plenty of interviews. And I would love an opportunity to see yours raw video to have more understanding about it.
i know it sounds arrogant. But it is all business at the end of the day,. you are not competing with yourself, there a whole lot bunch of people to choose from. I think experience is key here, they do not care if you are looking for a job, they care about their bottom line, and how much work they can squeeze out of you.
Great sharing, bro! As a fellow Mechanical Design Engineer, this is very informative video for me. I personally think you went above and beyond in all of your interview so far. InsyaAllah, there'll be a good position for you soon. 💪💪
Great video. One thing I would say about your comment about wishing you majored in computer science... I think mechanical or electrical engineering are the smartest engineering fields to get into. AI is already dang close to taking over programming. I majored in Info Tech / Comp Sci but landed a career worthy job as an electrical/mech. engineer in the semiconductor industry.
very informative. gets to the nuts and bolts of the interview process. seems exhausting. do you regret not switching into software engineering or computer science at waterloo?
Such videos are actually helpful , would like to watch them , preferably filtered for sure since it saves time and probably would increase the likelihood of someone picking your video to watch.
Great videos man! Your knowledge far surpasses mine. I'm sure you'll get something great. It's too bad these small companies are jacking you around like this. I think they're missing out.
Very talented posting!!! Very impressive too!!! However, After a short period of digesting your talk, I 1st wanted to close but kept listening due to your energy because I knew where this was probably going & I've dealt with it many years ago. Long story short - - they were using you. But, having said that thanks for enlightening me on this new age. FYI I did hook a good job (years ago) by "telling" them what they were doing wrong & hiring me would stop all that. (My experience) Have a great day.
Hang in there kid. Interviews even when experienced all sound like this and never an apolgoy for making you wait. My advice, if they dont value your time, they never will.
Tamer, do you fear that these types of detailed videos where you are recording people and presenting their interview process is playing a role in this hiring delay? Do you know if they look you up online?
Thank you so much, Tamer; I appreciate your content on ME Interviews. I am also going through same process, and I have got 6 interviews but no positive response. I am trying to calm my nerveness. It would be beneficial to share answers and what company expects with that question.I am sure you will get a great job. All the best.
Thank you so much Tamer for sharing your actual interviews, really helpful 🙏 By the way, Solidworks is $100 per year for the student edition. For US veterans is $20 per year 😮
I'm a software eng but I've had similar experiences. I despise take home "challenges" because of the time investment for a job you may not get...for a litany of reasons. I'd rather leetcode on the spot any day. They may have already had someone in the late stages by the time you started the interview process. Really have to remove your emotions job hunting. Keep your head up, your work ethic won't allow you to fail. Just a matter of time..
How are these “design challenges” not just the companies getting free work done for them by people looking for jobs?
Bingo. Many firms do this.
That's what I was thinking too
lol... I was thinking the same as well. 😂
GOOD POINT!!! Cheap Easy Way for Apple Engineers to Get Fresh ideas Based off of things they already do.
This happens in marketing as well I'm so surprised to hear this in other fields. It's super exploitive and annoying.
Seeing videos like this is honestly so insane. Tamer has probably the most stacked resume any mechanical engineer could have coming fresh out of college, and yet he gets turned down left and right. Really makes you wonder how impossible it’ll be to land a good ME job out of college
Well I'm sure his biggest hurdle is that he's not a US citizen or GC holder
@@bendoverDN GC holder?

If he could mobe to Canada or Europe, he would fino job very easy.
Yes please, as an engineering student you have made me realize what a massive void I have when it comes to experience and how to handle these real world problems in the engineering job hunting process. Thanks again for the quality content!
Some years ago, most engineering learning (study) did not include talking to employers!!! Thin k about that?
boys and girls if you want a high paying job fast, go into utility power. Work on boilers, gas/steam turbines, solar and wind. There are tons of people retiring and they are hiring like crazy.

I personally think you went above and beyond in all of your interview so far. InsyaAllah, there'll be a good position for you soon. 💪💪
I love it how you showed and explained the designed in detail, just in case 😊
Appreciate that you say it the way it is, I'm pretty sure you'll get a job. Thanks for sharing!
Great video. One thing I would say about your comment about wishing you majored in computer science... I think mechanical or electrical engineering are the smartest engineering fields to get into. AI is already dang close to taking over programming. I majored in Info Tech / Comp Sci but landed a career worthy job as an electrical/mech. engineer in the semiconductor industry.
very informative. gets to the nuts and bolts of the interview process. seems exhausting. do you regret not switching into software engineering or computer science at waterloo?
Such videos are actually helpful , would like to watch them , preferably filtered for sure since it saves time and probably would increase the likelihood of someone picking your video to watch.
Enjoying the transparency and an inside look especially as an engineer major
Really enjoyed this. Job hunting is a grind. U showed that well
Great videos man! Your knowledge far surpasses mine. I'm sure you'll get something great. It's too bad these small companies are jacking you around like this. I think they're missing out.
Very talented posting!!! Very impressive too!!! However, After a short period of digesting your talk, I 1st wanted to close but kept listening due to your energy because I knew where this was probably going & I've dealt with it many years ago. Long story short - - they were using you. But, having said that thanks for enlightening me on this new age. FYI I did hook a good job (years ago) by "telling" them what they were doing wrong & hiring me would stop all that. (My experience) Have a great day.
100% down for the uncut INTERVIEWS, that would be awesome.
Thank you for creating these videos. They are very informative!
Hang in there kid. Interviews even when experienced all sound like this and never an apolgoy for making you wait. My advice, if they dont value your time, they never will.
Yes, uncut interviews would be great!
Wow I didn’t know job hunting as mechanical engineering is so difficult
Hello. Thank you for sharing your experiences with your interviews. I’d like to see the uncut versions of your interviews.
Tamer, do you fear that these types of detailed videos where you are recording people and presenting their interview process is playing a role in this hiring delay? Do you know if they look you up online?
Tanner, you killed it on every single one of those interviews. Their honestly just missing out!
Thank you so much, Tamer; I appreciate your content on ME Interviews. I am also going through same process, and I have got 6 interviews but no positive response. I am trying to calm my nerveness. It would be beneficial to share answers and what company expects with that question.I am sure you will get a great job. All the best.
great video tamer, I pray you get your dream job! love these videos. stay bessed
I love your videos Tamer. I am in the process of finding a job too. wish you the best.
Its funny how some employers can make interviewees jump through hoops and dance. What a dystopian country
Thank you so much Tamer for sharing your actual interviews, really helpful 🙏
By the way, Solidworks is $100 per year for the student edition.
For US veterans is $20 per year 😮
I'm impressed. Back in my time, i would never been hired if I had such difficult interviews.
Thank you for sharing your experience, very valuable info. Good luck.
I'm a software eng but I've had similar experiences. I despise take home "challenges" because of the time investment for a job you may not get...for a litany of reasons. I'd rather leetcode on the spot any day. They may have already had someone in the late stages by the time you started the interview process. Really have to remove your emotions job hunting. Keep your head up, your work ethic won't allow you to fail. Just a matter of time..
Yes please. Raw footage would help us learn. Thank you for making us a great and helpful video.
Tamer you are an inspiration!!
