At first glance, to work for NASA seems very glamorous, very satisfying but ultimately something for the “nerdy” types who like to work on their own. However, in reality life as a NASA mechanical design engineer is very different to the impression you get when you watch rocket launches from Cape Canaveral!

Finding a job with NASA在NASA謀得一個職位

) X- u& `0 Z" z7 \$ \0 vWhen you bear in mind the billions of dollars spent by the US government funding NASA you might expect the authorities to formally invite applications from those looking for employment. The idea that the authorities could pick and choose the best from the world of mechanical design engineering makes perfect sense to such a prestigious operation. However, finding a job with NASA is not as simple or straightforward as you might presume!

Some individuals are lucky enough to apply directly to NASA highlighting their experience, qualifications and perhaps more importantly their passion for the industry. Passion and knowledge will get you a long way but the vast majority of those who work for NASA have gained experience elsewhere and joined the NASA community via third-party project management companies. It is more likely you will find your way to a career with NASA via these third parties.

一些幸運兒直接向NASA求職,，說明自己的工作經驗、專業(yè)品質,、以及對航天事業(yè)的熱情,。僅僅擁有對工作的熱愛與精湛的專業(yè)知識也許會讓你的NASA之路遙遙無期，大部分直接入職的員工都有參與NASA第三方項目合作公司的工作經驗,。憑借與NASA有合作的第三方項目公司的工作經驗將大大提高你的入職概率,。

Salary expectations and career progression薪資待遇職業(yè)前景

Anyone joining a NASA engineering position would be expected to have a master’s degree or at the very least a bachelor’s degree in a specific area of engineering. The qualifications required will depend upon how you gain entry to the NASA funded projects but in reality the very least you would need is a bachelor’s degree. The level of salary you can expect will vary between the different levels of expertise but we are looking at $75,000 upwards and the ability to achieve upwards of $100,000 within five years. You will find that there are more lucrative opportunities outside of the world of NASA but how do you put a price on landing a probe on Mars, discovering a new Galaxy or perhaps the ultimate goal of creating a new human colony outside of Earth?

能進NASA的工程師一般擁有工程專業(yè)碩士以上學位最起碼也有學士學位。對于學歷的要求取決于你的崗位需求,，但是至少也要求學士學位,。薪資水平根據專家評級會有很大的差異，但是至少7萬5000美金一年,，并根據能力五年內可以拿到10萬美金以上的年薪,。憑你的專業(yè)水平，可以輕而易舉地在NASA之外謀得一份更有“錢途”的工作,，但是,，無法用金錢衡量的是在火星上勘探、發(fā)現(xiàn)一個全新的星系,、或者是在地球之外開發(fā)一塊人類殖民地,。

It is well documented that there are two real pathways to increased salary which are management or technical expertise. In reality those looking to take the management path will have some technical expertise and those looking to take the technical expertise path will have some management experience. For those with a passion for space travel and the connected array of engineering challenges there will be many opportunities to climb up the career ladder with NASA. The vast majority of NASA employees will have standard office hours but, depending upon their position and their role, there may be additional requirements outside of these hours.
