The Scope of an NDT Engineer: Why They’re Not Getting Job Offers

Let me tell you that NDT is a big field covering almost all the sectors, which includes metal and where high quality is needed. the recent years NDT is also used by civil companies for concrete testing. NDT is required by companies which are involved in structural engineering companies who although aren’t focused so much on quality but still it has become a client requirement. Even in Hyderabad.

some construction companies who are involved in structural engineering have approached us for testing as more n more metal structures are coming up. One example can be the IIT campus coming up in Hyderabad, which is all metal structure and no concrete and cement are used in the construction.

So I request all to look at NDT as a supportive course that will help you get jobs in departments like quality control, production etc. which may indirectly require NDT knowledge and certification but the main position you hold is of a mechanical engineer.

If you are searching a for job only on NDT then you will get NDT technician jobs which as an engineer may not suit you and the jobs like NDT inspector, coordinator etc. are less available. So please don’t forget that you are a mechanical engineer who has additional NDT certification and then search for a job. You will be surprised to know so many opportunities are available to start with.
