Ask HN: How do people in F1 get their job?
I'm just wondering if it's mostly through networking or are people applying to job offers?
- lcmatt 10y agoDepends on the position. The pit crew are made up of car mechanics and more senior technical/critical roles. You'll never find a role advertised for a 'wheel changer', instead you'll need to work your way into the company as a mechanic and then move onto the race team if you're suitable. If you have the experience then take a look on their company site, for example McLaren have various roles open: https://careers.mclaren.com/go/Racing/724201/?utm_source=careersite&_ga=1.136974128.1021946753.1471957855 https://careers.mclaren.com/go/Racing/724201/?utm_source=car...
