You asked about Aerospace engineering and I stated all the folks I know are in NASA and unfortunately the hiring for NASA even for the Space Coast locations were all done through their offices in DC and MD.
It's about the same for all plane design work - you'll need to join me in the DC-MD-VA area, and I say that because all the "private" aerospace I know work for Raytheon, GM, etc. designing weapons.
It matters because hiring always seems to be regional thus certain feeder schools are overrepresented in whatever positions are available wherever they may be available.
Facebook and Amazon aren't going to stop exclusively hiring USC, UCLA, Berkeley and Stanford grads, and instead hire UVA or Georgetown or CUNY grads just because they've shipped the jobs to VA or NYC so long as HR is still routed through Silicon Valley.
Spez: so what I tend to do with friends is I borrow an address which I use on my resume when applying for such "regional" job.
Yes the aerospace and DOD industry is large here, Lockheed, Northrop, Siemens, General Dynamics, Spacex, NASA etc...I have applied to various positions at most of them, never get a response really..
Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean.

I was just suggesting fields that are big in Florida. :) Who cares where they hire from if they have an office in FL?
Oh sorry for misunderstanding.

Interesting. I haven't found that (hiring by DC-vicinity) to be true in my field at all, even though we're very DC- centralized.

Me neither!
