Nothing is more frustrating than struggling to find opportunities when searching for your next career move, and the engineering industry is no different. However, an understanding of the flow of the market, a bit of research, and an understanding of the recruitment process in general can save a considerable amount of time and effort and increase your chances of landing an interview.

In this episode of EngineeringPro, we speak to Joanna Mainprice, recruitment consultant for energy at NES Fircroft. We talk about some of the best - and worst - times of the year to look for a job and how project lifecycles affect the number of job opportunities. Joanna shares her insights into understanding the job market, seasonal factors, project timelines and the advantages of proactive networking to maximise your chances of landing your next role.
