My Job in F1: Katherine | Graphic Designer

[@Sangamkr]

Its inspiring how she held onto her dream as a kid, and made it this far to make that dream come true. Proud of you katherine!

[@nicolasgarcia248]

No... Actually, to think that fullfilling a dream is inspiring shows how bad we are used to live. We live a live in wich a dream is not something we live, so we get "inspired" when we see someone else doing it.

It always satisfying seeing your own design become reality. I remember designing a big banner to cover a wall for a cafe, the visitor make it as a background for photos and selfie, makes my heart over the moon 🤩

These videos giving insight into how the team works along with team members is fantastic and quite informative. I appreciate how she has achieved her childhood dream, showing how dedication, and resiliency are fundamental parts to success in any field. Best of luck at the Singapore GP.🔥

[@nicolasgarcia248]

Yeah, Im quite sure that being British helped her

[@sultanoftippoo3857]

@@nicolasgarcia248 Incredibly perceptive of you. Who would have thought being qualified for the job, living within commuting distance to Brackley where she works would help her get this job at Mercedes. Can we draw the conclusion that it helps being Italian and living near Modena to get a job working for Ferrari?

[@nicolasgarcia248]

@@sultanoftippoo3857 yes, thats the f"*€ing point of my comment. Is not dedication, is where she lives, and who she knows

[@sultanoftippoo3857]

@@nicolasgarcia248 How do you know it’s “who she knows”. For all you know she could have studied hard at University, applied for the job and got it through merit? Autosport have dozens of jobs like hers advertised every week from companies like Mercedes, Red Bull etc. Williams have a specific apprentice program looking for school leavers to join in all sorts of motor sport jobs. Do all of these people get their jobs from who they know and if they did why waste time and money on advertising them in the first place?

[@nicolasgarcia248]

@@sultanoftippoo3857 because it doesnt matter if its F1, politics, a factory or a pet shop, good jobs are obtained vía contacts, not merit. If she happens to be one of the tiny minority that got it by merit, good for her

[@rebeccamclaren97]

I quit my job doing graphic design for an architect [even though I loved it] because it just wasn't going anywhere. Now I'm doing a mechanical engineering apprenticeship & this story makes me realise there _are_ other opportunities out there, and sometimes it takes training in another sector to gain the skills a company is looking for, even if you end up transferring later on 😀 I think I'm more creative than technical, but am really enjoying hands-on training as it's challenging me in a new way, and although I see myself having some sort of design career, it's incredibly helpful to understand how things work and to learn how to push boundaries and be curious, and test and refine components to achieve better results and have an innovative mindset.

[@estebanquito510]

I study graphic design in Colombia and I really like Mercedes F1 and the designs are very nice, what a great design team! 💙

I’m sure it can be stressful but she’s living the dream

it's nice to see people getting their dreams come true and how the sport has grown to allow ppl from all fields and background to be apart of this wholesome moment! can't wait to do it myself!!! Cheers!!😁❤

Found this video very inspirational and delightful. Enjoyable one. 🎉 I wish user experience designers were hired in such places :).

[@DaveWeston]

2019 was the first year we got the star pattern on the back of the car. Where the actual Mercedes logo had its circle removed to just get the 3 point star. I'd be fascinated to know how that went about. To take something completely sacred for years in their visual identity and create a corrupted version of it as a pattern. I was fascinated by this bold step and Katherine was right there when it happened.
