Default Anyone looking for a Engineering/MBA grad for project management?

I'm off to Augusta, GA this weekend for an interview with Southern Company for an engineering position at one of their nuclear power plants. On Feb 20 I'm flying to Frederick, MD to meet with Bechtel for a project controls position in their power division. I have an interview with a headhunter in town this afternoon. Anyone else work for a company or know someone who is looking for an Industrial Engineering and MBA grad to work in a project management or project controls position? I've gotten some good leads from a few of you so far (THANK YOU!!!!!). I'm hoping to relocate to the south/south east (TX, TN, SC, GA, etc....)...looking to start around the first of July this year.

Imma be all done wit skool and gradumated and edumacated in May.

Email sent, thanks man! I got a lead on a company called URS, which is in the same industry as Bechtel. They had a job posting in Austin that I'm going to apply for as well.

Interviewed with Southern Company back in 2000. My company's environmental dept sources URS to do different jobs. Both are good companies.

Curtd's wife is a recruiter for Southern Company.

Bechtel, Stone & Webster, Hyperspring are all Nuclear contract companies. The key to making money in nuclear power is be willing to move to expand your resume'.
Dale Jennings is a good contact in Hyperspring. But anything under you belt is what i'd be looking for at this point. IMO.
