the really smart guys make average engineers. the guys that struggle but do it because they love it make great engineers.

>engine development job at McLaren

After 3 miserable seasons with Honda, they'd pretty much hire anybody at this point.

>Paying over $997,000 more for just 5.2s less 0 - 100 kph.

Doesn't McLaren require 80 hour weeks and pay a sub par salary?

thats not how that works

You're way off baseline

>this is what bench racers actually believe

Guys, are helmets like those actually effective when being used welding or doing industry related shit? I mean, wouldn't it be wise for the lights to be shooting outwards than into the worker's eyes?

I'm going to a job fair for a local McLaren, Porsche, Audi, VW etc dealer tomorrow.

Anyone have any fun facts or insider knowledge of McLaren or Porsche?

WITHIN CELLS INTERLINKED

It's almost like you only read news headlines and assume you know all you need to.

any uk auto industry job pay is sub par.
F1 is notorious for long working hours and demanding uncompromising loyalty.

How much do you make?

...

I do tech support for an aftermarket company. Go to the drag strip and you'll see our shit on just about everything.
It's fucking based, nearly everyone in my office races something, or is just passionate about cars, and most of the calls are basic shit like installing software.

>tfw I love cars and learning more about them but I have never worked with them, only did small services on my own cars by myself, and I'm too old to start college again.

Did you forget how to speak English at university?
What the fuck are you talking about?

Line tech at Lexus dealer, literally who is paying 100 bucks for an oil change and why am I always so busy?

where do you live? I knew some people that now work at McLaren

I went to their HQ in Woking (near London) and holy shit it was impressive. OCD off the charts.

Nowhere near woking! I can't afford to live that near London.
McLaren have outsourced their development to Millbrook so if I get the position I'll be based in Milton Keynes.

Even at a lost cost state you should be making 100k user. Time to job hop.

is this average salary in the usa?

programming jobs are paying really damn well right now due to the trump economy, i make way more than that

>Implying it's not just some hiring admin justifying their position by selecting enough applicants to satisfy the rest of their week of work

I make $30 an hour with a two year degree in interventional radiology. There's tons of call if you want it so you most likely bring in 70-80k. You get about $1 raise per year.

Housing and accomadation around Woking and the area is expensive as shit
