Lee Berrey:

Their may be no direct evidence that EC registration gets you a higher pay, but I personally believe your better off with it than without it when fighting for a higher pay.

I forgot to add - I think this sentence is really well put! And also probably true for getting your CV through the sorting stage.

And although I have come across recruiting managers that really don't like to see it (the ones that see us all as old-boys-club stick-in-the-muds who should be pensioned off) I don't think even they would actually reject a good CV which had CEng / IEng on. So on balance my feeling it's either going to help (possibly quite a lot) or be neutral.

Any more stories / experiences from anyone would be very welcome!

Thanks,

Andy
