      Totally agree with Ruth, but if you are talking about a change in direction currently being a civil engineer then i could potentially go into Railway Geotechnical, structural and material.

      thanks

      bettaparty + olliem16.,

      I am multiskilled, so have loads of skills, and can follow lots of branches of engineering.
      It’s a good thing, as like riding a cycle, some skills are really hard to forget ( like welding )

      It’s best to have a broad eduction / be multiskilled, so if you suddenly need a new job, you should be able to find one quickly, or make one yourself !
