Lockheed Martin will be hiring ‘on the spot’ Tuesday for F-35 jobs
Lockheed's having a big hiring event, even giving some offers on the spot.

I had my old beat-up Lockheed C130B, E, H and HC130B ground maintenance manuals out the other day because I was trying to settle a slight disagreement about a tech matter with another nerd from my old Air Guard unit. I was looking at a particularly exciting section on main landing gear hydraulic motor removal when my youngest kid pops in, looks over my shoulder and says, "Lockheed stuff, huh? I got an interview with Lockheed-Martin in Orlando on Tuesday."
Total surprise to his mom and me. He's a mechanical engineer and has always wanted to get in with one of the big 10 defense firms. He worked for the Naval Surface Weapons Center right out of college, and he's been with a smaller aerospace firm the past few years. So we're hoping he can get in at Lockheed. It's not easy, Lockheed's #1. Far be it for me to imply anything here, but it's easier if you're not a white male.
Ever see their Orlando campus? It is massive.
I know from reading here you were once contracted with Lockheed? I suspect working as a contractor and being an employee are not really comparable experiences.
Pull it up on Google maps. It's off of...408 I think? Down 434/ Alafaya Tr.
Rog that.

Now that’s a defense plant. Wow. He said he’d be working on missiles if he gets the job. We’ll see. If not he’ll stay at Pall Aerospace and wait for another opportunity.

I’m friends with the Skunk Works VP. If he gets it, in a couple of years after he’s gotten his feet wet and a name for himself shoot me a message.
