Thanks all. The job market is tough out there. This job came by referral. A friend of mine called me Wednesday night and told me about it. I had worked with my new employer on a couple of projects in the past, so he was confident in my abilities. I doubt the offer would have been what it is had our paths not crossed in the past.
I'll initially be doing Automation control systems and plc programming. I am also going to help him expand his company by offering customers complete automation and robotic systems, rather than just control systems. My first job will be quoting two robotic weld cells. This will also create a number of new jobs. He just hired a new salesperson and the RFQ's are piling up.
This is going to be a fun job.
