I posted here because I figured the most civils and architects would see it. The question is about salary. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering, and I am about to receive an offer for a job as a Cost Estimator for a very large Tile, stone, and Terrazo contractor, the third largest in the U.S. It is an entry level job that I have no previous experience employment experience with, nor do I have any previous Engineering job experience. The basic job duties include:
reviewing bid offers from companies, researching the blueprints and specifications and standards, using computers to estimate the area layouts, quantities of tile or stone needed, cost of tile and stone as well as grout and other sealing materials, costs of labor, and the logistics of completing the project(how are we going to get the materials in/out of the building,where to store parts, etc..), Do any of you guys know cost estimators that do similar work, and what salary do they think would be appropriate for this job?
