I was given an assignment last week to interview someone currently in the career field that I am pursuing. That would be Mechanical Engineering. I emailed both EBR and Motus, but haven't gotten any responses. Not really surprised at the lack of a response, but I am a bit disappointed. It would have been pretty sweet to get some firsthand insight from the people working my dream job! Still keeping my fingers crossed for a last minute response, but the assignment is due in a week so I'd better get started.. Anyway, if someone here could be so kind as to complete this survey for me, I'd appreciate it. I wish I didn't have to include the salary question, but I do. If you want to copy/paste the questions and respond via a PM, that will work just fine. Thanks in advance! PS, Court.. any chance of still getting a response from someone at EBR? I'm sure they're super busy with work on RS production, AX/RX/SX development, race team testing/planning, etc. but hey - I can dream, right? Job Title: Person Interviewed: 1. Why did you originally choose this career? 2. How many years have you been at your job? 3. What are the educational requirements for your job? 4. Other than educational requirements, what experience and/or qualifications are required for your job? 5. How has this career changed since you first started? 5.b How do you expect it to change in the future? 6. What is the salary range? 6.b How many hours per week spent in this career? 7. What is the most difficult part of your job? 8. Have you regretted anything concerning this career choice? 9. Has your career been what you expected? 10. Do you anticipate making a career change or are you satisfied where you are? 11. What has been your biggest challenge in this career? 11.b What has been the most rewarding? 12. What is a typical day like in your job? 13. Do you have any advice for someone entering this career? That's it! Again, thank you so much for your time and insight. |

Thank you very much to those who replied. Plenty of information with which to start work on my essay, in addition to gaining a little more insight on how to prepare for a ME career. You guys are awesome. |
