[quote=paramount][quote=jimmyle]At JPL you don’t do much with a BS. You need a Master or PhD degree. In addition, these guys are very selective and a little bit arrogant, they probably don’t consider candidates from Cal State Colleges. Most people who work there are from Cal Tech, MIT, Berkeley, and Stanford.
[quote=ucodegen]Another possibility is JPL located just north of Pasadena. It might be hard to get into though.[/quote][/quote]
In my experience I would say these Cal Tech ‘people’ can be VERY arrogant. In fact, the North Pasadena area I think in general is loaded with snobs.
Sorry, got off the subject. The very large aerospace company I work for has been laying off in great numbers – right in RB. In fact, a big RIF will be occurring this week.[/quote]
Very snobby I’m sure but very valuable to US apparently. I don’t see it any more but when I used to drive by Pasadena I could see a sign for a some kind of military transport unit in Pasadena. Kinda of really odd location for an active military unit. Than I realized in case something big happens, the US govt probably would want to rescue/relocate the brain trust at Pasadena to somewhere safe…
