I started my engineering business more than 10 years ago.  Our customers are all kinds of factories and industries all over the country.  We serve utilities such as power plants, water treatment plants, car assembly plants, chemical, food, biotech etc.  We are very lucky we do not serve or concentrate heavily on oil and gas and as such are largely spared from the mess.

  Despite stiff challenges and many ups and downs I would describe myself as modestly successful and stable in my niche engineering field.  My company has amazingly low overheads as we threw out all the deadwood since last year.  Hiring regular staff (mainly fresh graduates) to maintain company business and to serve customers has been our chief disappointment.  All seem promising but none delivered at all, not even remotely close to expectations. 

We have fixed this problem for the near future and continue to seek talents who can deliver performance results. We presently have 12 vacancies waiting to be filled. We are still in the black and our company look forward to the future to acquire more business to meet our profit target.
