As a recent college graduate entering as a Project Engineer, you would begin a five-year leadership development program that will enhance and further develop your engineering skills to encompass construction problem solving and most importantly, how to handle the business of running a profitable project.
As a new Field Engineer at Encore you would begin a similar five-year leadership development program. However, this program concentration and primary focus is on the skilled crafts.
