had a confirmation email, 1.30 thursday

 

 

Computational Fluid Dynamics, computer software used to calculate and visualize flow.

Luckily its not good enough to do away with wind tunnels so there will allways be a need for them and your skills

Good luck

 

cheers mate, although as such i have no skills, or any experiance of wind tunnells and 3D modular design

i have been emailing the woman who i spoke to and they wont let me have a look around the factory after the interview cos there have the cars in preparing them for this race season, and i am not allowed to take a camera either

(i asked if i could go on a tour of the place, and if i could bring me camera lol)

also there are 2 other peeps to be interviewed.

i really would love to do this job but i fear that my lack of experiance/skills is yet again going to be my downfall.

 

Fookin Hell. We going to need a PassionFord F1 team soon!

Theres you at McLaren, Fudeass will (positive thinking ) get this job at Williams. Theres someone else on here who works for Jaguar, now Red Bull (got a 3dr Moonstone IIRC)

Can you lot get free tickets to the Races? I quite fancy living it up in Monaco

 

lol cheers mate

ill let you know on the ticket situation lol

 

Fudgeass

You've done very very well to even get an interview!! I've applied to a few motorsport teams in the past and never really got anywhere.

What qualifications/experiance do you have?

Good luck

 

Fudgeass, good luck dude and when you get the job don't be surprised when people start asking you how much for a bling set of brakes!

 

RICH sorry mate when i said i worked @ mclaren it was as a sub contractor when they
built it, same as when i worked @ williams f1 ........

get to visit some really cool places in my job

 

Enjoy your day on Thursday, it’s a fantastic place.

I was offered a job with the Williams team 8 years ago in the fabrication shop, but due to my daughter being born prematurely wasn’t able to take the position.

Hope you get the position

 

cheers guys, i did ask if i could be taken on a tour of the place and i asked if i could bring a camera lol, the woman said i wont be able to have a look round as they have the cars there and its a critical time with all the pre season testing etc going on.

and a big no to the camera lol

john, the job asked for an apprenticship with HNC/HND and for at least 2 years CAD experiance.

ive got an apprenticship but only an ONC, 3+ years CAD exp and a great interest in cars, i even wrote small bit on the motorbike throttle bodies im fitting to my car in my application letter lol....

 

Dan,
It was this that probably distinguished you from all the other "normal" application letters, and got you the interview. When sifting through applications of similarly qualified people, you have to have something that will make people choose you over the next person - so good call !

 

yeah could be i spose, i also put about fiddling with engines aswell lol!!

cheers mike, just need to get the fookers back and nailed on!!!

 

Aaah I see. Close enough though aint it

 

Good Luck Mr Fudge =)
I'll have my fingers crossed for you =)

 

Well, i had the interview, and as far as i can tell it went pretty good

so im quite hopeful on this one, wont find out for another 2 weeks tho...
didnt really get to see much, saw franks office lol, and fukkin great turbo in a glass cabinet behind his desk

 

Sounds fuckin ace mate, hope you get it

I soooooo need an intersting job

 

I'd like a job that is a bit more interesting myself.

I'd *really* like to work in F1, but since you guys don't seem to have any shortage over there, they're not really interested in giving guys like me (across the pond) a visa to do it.

 

cheers steve, i fookin hope i get it too, would be pretty amazing to work there i think, and as im interested in motor sports its the 1 job i really would like



and gonna slaughter all the c*nts where i work atm very VERY soon

especially that south african c*nt - he REALLY does my nut in
