Graduate Mechanical Engineer - Need Advice
(OP)
Hello,
I recently graduated and I am looking to embark on a HVAC Building Services engineering career.
I was wondering what are the essential applicable technical engineering skills that are highly valued by building services engineering consulting firms that I could master to make me an attractive candidate?
Thanks,

A basic understanding of various conventional and even non-conventional HVAC and plumbing systems is a MUST. I don't know how many people I've interviewed who got the "deer in the headlights" look when I asked them about any HVAC systems past rooftop units and VAV reheat, but if I had a dollar for every one of them, I'd have a nice little nest-egg.

Good luck and don't stress, most places will hire you just because of the mechanical degree (that was my case) and you will learn the HVAC specifics as you go.
