Test Driver Job Available
Hey all,
I know it's been a while since I've been on here. Between the backlog and work and the work at the house I have been swamped. I wanted to let you all know that there are multiple openings for a test driver/engineer position down here in San Angelo, TX working for Goodyear. At a minimum you have to have an engineering degree (typically mechanical) and the more driving experience you have, the better. In terms of job experience, you can have everything from recently graduated to several decades. The more time you've spent in testing and/or automotive fields, the better. So if you are interested in this position, send me a pm so I can get your resume to my HR manager. There is a posting on Goodyear's career website that you will need to apply to but apparently the driver posting is not available due to technical difficulties so you'll have to apply later once it's back up. Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know about the opening and hopefully get someone a job. I hope everyone is doing well back there,
Lane

Re: Test Driver Job Available
I'm assuming here being a national champion won't make up for the lack of an engineering degree?

Re: Test Driver Job Available
Yeah unfortunately not. This job has a surprising amount of engineering work associated with what is suppose to be a purely driving job.00GTJustin wrote:I'm assuming here being a national champion won't make up for the lack of an engineering degree?

Re: Test Driver Job Available
how about a gen. studies degree with a very heavy leaning in Mech Engineering? ( had to wait a couple of semesters for the last couple of ENG classes and couldnt keep up finances that long, so had to switch fields. only an associate's though)
Hey, what does this thing do *zap* oww,.... so that's what it does!

Re: Test Driver Job Available
I believe the job description says a BS degree in engineering but doesn't specify a field. I'm guessing that means you might be out of luck but you can always look online and apply if you feel you fit the description.fspmx6 wrote:how about a gen. studies degree with a very heavy leaning in Mech Engineering?

Re: Test Driver Job Available
I realize that it's been a few months but we are still looking for an engineer for the test driver position down here. If any of you have been thinking about applying but would be interested or know of anyone who would be interested, let me know and we can get the ball rolling. Thanks.

Re: Test Driver Job Available
I got them. I'm just a little slow to respond with all the stuff I have going on now. Check you inbox, you should have one from me.
