By 1923, aged 22, Symington worked for The Symington Company, (for his Uncle). He did this for awhile. The Company was based in Rochester, New York, selling "Malleable iron products". By 1925, he founded "Eastern Clay Products"; by 1927, Symington came back to his Uncle's company as "Executive Assistant to the President". With such a lofty title, Symington wanted more than grinding the waves of iron making. The next lesson was increasing his prominence in politics. But first he headed into the US Military.
By 1930, Symington became President of the Colonial Radio Corporation. By 1935, (four years before WWII), he was President of the Rustless Iron and Steel Corporation. By 1937, Rustless Iron and Steel Corporation had been taken over by American Rolling Mill Company. By 1938, Symington was President of Emerson Electric Company, based in St. Louis, Missouri. When Adolf Hitler ilegally invaded Poland because he wanted to kill Jews in 1939, he begun the new war. His company then build airplane gun turrets for the US Military to attack the Führer.
