What employers look for in a Aerospace / Defence Design CV / resume

Aerospace and defence design teams in India look for strong fundamentals in aerodynamics, structures and materials, backed by tools used on real airframes. Highlight CATIA V5 part and surface design, NX or Creo, finite element work in ANSYS or HyperMesh with Nastran, and CFD exposure. Knowledge of composites, sheet metal aircraft structures, fasteners and airworthiness documentation is valued. Freshers should list UAV, glider or rocketry projects, design competitions, internships at aerospace labs or MRO units, and any research paper. Strong academic records and GATE scores matter for public sector design labs.
