The New Plan

The Very Next Steps

• be specific about what industries and companies I’m going after.
• work to identify roles that I can fill, or am interested in filling.  This will require some research & networking.
• work to nail down job descriptions, and the qualifications I’d need.  Research & networking.
• identify ALL the companies that I should be targetting.  Research.  Check their career pages.  Set up auto searches.
• send out CVs.  Keep networking and checking job postings.

Some Thoughts

Smart Grid / Advanced Metering / Electric Car Infrastructure

• wireless network engineer: designer, optimizer.  Operations?
• project manager

Renewable Energy

• I don’t know, but take another look at the LOCAL industry, find any opportunity to get either PM experience or power tech experience
• be open minded; don’t snort at manufacturing or system integrator or installation work

NGOs

• I don’t know, but try to network or cold-call my way in, and solicit opinions on where I can use my powers for good (& make a living)
• Maybe to work for an NGO, maybe to use them for advice, networking.
