Entry Level Civil Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get an entry level civil engineer job?

Entry level civil engineer roles prioritize internship experience, relevant coursework, and familiarity with tools like AutoCAD or Civil 3D. A strong portfolio of academic or internship projects gives candidates a clear edge. Certifications such as the Engineer-in-Training credential signal technical readiness. Applying directly to firms that explicitly welcome new graduates and tailoring your resume to each posting's listed requirements will improve your response rate.

Which companies hire entry level civil engineers?

Companies hiring entry level civil engineers right now include Jobot, Kimley-Horn, and Westwood Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Engineering consultancies, municipal governments, construction firms, and infrastructure contractors are among the most active employers at this experience level.

Are there remote entry level civil engineer jobs?

Yes, though most civil engineering work is site-dependent, a portion of roles do offer remote or hybrid arrangements for tasks like drafting, design review, and project coordination. About 16% of entry level civil engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, so filtering by work setting when you search can help you find roles that fit your situation.

Are these new grad civil engineer jobs?

Yes. The listings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior civil engineer roles alongside other entry level openings. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts internships or co-ops toward the requirement, or accepts a strong academic portfolio in place of full-time work history. Look for those signals in the job description before applying.

Which industries hire the most entry level civil engineers?

Entry Level civil engineer roles concentrate in Consulting & Professional Services, Construction & Real Estate, and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. These sectors drive consistent hiring at the junior level because they rely on large project pipelines that need engineers at every stage, creating real openings for candidates just entering the field.
