<p>What exactly is it?</p>

<p>I am a senior in a high school, and as my community study (last 3 weeks), I am going to work at an engineering consultant company. When I interviewed, they told me that they are like a "marketing" company that bridges engineering companies in South Korea and consumer companies in US. </p>

<p>Can you please tell me more about engineering consultant? Names of any well known companies?? Starting salaries?? Degrees needed?? Etc. Any thing you know about it.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>i think an engineering consultant is like a free-lancing (or contract using) person/firm that does narrow-scope work for another company.
the client company may ask the person/firm to design a specific part for something or do analysis on a specific aspect of a product. </p>

<p>the client pays the consultant for their professional input/opinions on the client's product.</p>

<p>yes what rocketDA said is correct, you get paid for your input</p>

<p>is the pay similar to that of someone working in a business consulting firm-for two workers at the same level in a business and engr. consulting firm, respectively? Are work hours similar? Can you name some top engr. consulting companies(chemical engr./pharmaceuticals)?</p>
