My first summer I applied to jobs without a portfolio, and got 0 responce or interview out of almost 15 places. Now, I applied to similar interships, and got a 100% success rate of getting interviews, that means all the 8 places I applied, I got an interview

[@IrrelevantStyler]

Thank you for you advice man appreciate it. I added a portfolio for a working student engineering job. And I got my first interwove after one day! And they accepted me one day later.

[@envitech02]

I'm not an engineer but I've run an engineering firm for 20 years. I've hired engineering interns for 12 years. What I've found is that many interns are not competent in CAD despite claiming to do so. Sure they can draw circles and squares but that's just about it. Most do not have proper attitude and believe that the company owes them basic knowledge and skills during internship. Therefore we're extremely selective in hiring interns. Out of 400-500 or so applicants, maybe we'll take one. Certain universities we unfortunately no longer accept.

[@quiveryhurdle7175]

How can you completely cut off the availability of applicants from an entire university?

[@IffyEdem]

And then these same companies complain that they need more people 💀🤣 okay

[@lavagon6419]

You sound delightful

[@elmass3662]

But like. They're not wrong😅

[@notimportant8643]

Yea, cause it's so outlandish for ppl to expect on the job training in a profession as broad as engineering... wonder how your generation would've fared if they were expected to teach themselves literally everything instead of being handed everything they ever needed without asking....and yall think we are the entitled ones... try being a depressed young adult who can't get a job due to insufficient experience when all the 'entry' level jobs require years of experience to begin with... then try working a goddamn internship for free and going hungry just to get said experience... go F yourself

Hi, I am gonna be starting university on September. I will study Mechatronics in UW. I want to get some skills that you mentioned until September and spend my summer efficiently. Is there any particular skill that you would recommend me to start with? I do not have any experience in programming, 3d modelling, etc. For Mechatronics what would be the most useful and important one? My plan is to get into an online course (maybe one with a certificate). Also, is there any particular online course or website that you recommend? Thank you.

Btw, I find your videos very helpful and motivating. You are really doing a great job. Keep it up!

[@tarnjot5939]

@@emrehanklc8738 Hey, I don’t have an answer for your question but I have a question for you. Since you got into UW mechatronics, what were your grade, experiences and any tips for the application process.

[@emrehanklc8738]

@@tarnjot5939 Hi, my average was around 96 when I got accepted. I probably got accepted mostly because of my marks. My aif and interview were ok but nothing crazy. So, tbh I didn't do anything special I just tried to keep my marks high. Also, for engineering Physics and Advanced Functions are especially important and my mark for both these courses were pretty high, that might had an impact.

[@tarnjot5939]

@@emrehanklc8738 Ye, my average is around that but may I ask what was on your aif including experience and volunteerism to help me get a perception of an okay aif.

[@TamerShaheen]

Mechatronics students usually end up working in the mechanical space or the software space. So, if ur interested in working in the mechanical space, then you could do a CAD course online in SolidWorks, Fusion 360 or CATIA V5. You could also find some free courses or online tutorials as well. But, if ur interested in software, then start teaching urself the basics of programming languages like HTML, CSS, Java, C++ or Python. I’m not sure what ur coding level is, but if u have some experience in programming, then u could start a course called “Data Structures and Algorithms.” That course is the key to helping you get high paying software internships.

Do u think that would look good as a personal project both on my AIF going into uni AND for to put on a resume for co-ops or one of the two? thanks g

[@TamerShaheen]

Yea that would be good, any project helps. Then use the experience u get from that project to work on ur own projects from scratch.

Hello, I am currently a high school student and my school require me to get an internship that I am interested in. I personally would like to have an internship related to mechanical engineering, but I doubt that any company would even accept a high school student to work for them, what should I do?

[@TamerShaheen]

It’s tough to get an internship when ur so young. So for now, I’d recommend to build your experience by working on ur own projects. Teach yourself SolidWorks or Fusion 360 or Inventor or any other CAD software of ur choice by using KZbin videos. Then start designing things and adding them in ur portfolio. Also, if ur school has a robotics team, then join that as well.
