National Aviation Academy (NAA) regularly offers students numerous career services opportunities to directly network with industry professionals and find employment.

NAA held our most recent career fair in New England on March 3, 2022. Students and alumni networked with the 28 companies in attendance, which included industry heavy hitters such as United Airlines, GE Aviation, and Bombardier.

Aviation Needs Technicians!

According to the Boeing 2021 Pilot and Technician Outlook, 626,000 aviation technicians are needed worldwide. The demand for aviation maintenance work was apparent as companies were eager to interview and hire new talent. As the industry accelerates recovery from the pandemic, demand for skilled technicians rises!

Interviews and Networking

The career fair was a prime opportunity for many students! With 47 company representatives in attendance, students were able to hone their interviewing skills and expand their professional networks. Employers conducted 22 interviews during the event, with several more planned afterward. Several employers are planning return trips to National Aviation Academy as well!

At every point of training, students should be prepared to navigate professional networking settings like our career fairs. Check out our guide with helpful career tips for aviation mechanics in training!
