Step1
Check the numerous job sites that are dedicated specifically network design engineering Jobs.
Step2
Make sure the qualifications listed on these network design engineering job descriptions closely match the qualifications on the job seekers resume. It is a good idea to alter the Resume to meet job qualifications as long as the job seeker possesses these skills.

Step3
Join network design engineering associations. These groups provide some invaluable contacts for obtaining jobs in the network design engineering field. Information on these groups can be obtained through the Internet or through a local college.
Step4
Locate the correct job market locale. For instance, the job market for network design engineers is considerably better in certain areas of the country such as Austin, San Jose, the research triangle in NC and near colleges.
Step5
Call a local company that employs network design engineers and inquire if the company has a mentor program for people wanting to be a Network Design Engineer. If the company does not have a mentor program ask if they would allow a person to job-shadow a network design engineer for a day. This will prove invaluable to the applicant because often there are aspects to the job that a person who is new to the field did not even envision.
