The employment testing explained above sounds like one of the toughest versions of assessment that a <a href="http://midwesthr.com/" rel="nofollow"> Professional Employer Organization </a> administers. I'm not sure if my brother would still be interested in being a pilot if he knew the kinds of testing he had to go through. Not that he is lazy or anything, but he knows that he is not great at testing just because of nerves and the pressure to do well.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09437454961421929616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-88240722626611270782009-07-18T11:49:56.414-04:002009-07-18T11:49:56.414-04:00Wow, you come from a whole family of technical typ...Wow, you come from a whole family of technical types! I'm the first one in my family to get an engineering degree; all my progenitors were Arts & Letters people.Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14252946969701576139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-17822783185068763902009-07-18T04:45:12.914-04:002009-07-18T04:45:12.914-04:00Actually, a better example might be my brother.

He now monitors efficiency, progress, overruns, and so on. Unlike Dad, his Bachelor's and Master's were both in engineering.<br /><br />(My other brother is a database engineer, which ironically is what I trained to do but haven't done since my first job. His degree is in Biology. Totally unrelated to your post, but thought that I would fill out the family tree).Trumwillhttp://hitcoffee.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-91148130019386920442009-07-18T02:28:39.456-04:002009-07-18T02:28:39.456-04:00This is only tangentially related, but my father c...This is only tangentially related, but my father cut his professional teeth with the DoD (civilian-side) as an aerospace engineer. Anyway, when he decided to go to graduate school, he went for an economics degree and was in administration thereafter in cost estimation, auditing, and supervising auditors.Trumwillhttp://hitcoffee.netnoreply@blogger.com
