instruction. He repairs or creates machines and parts. He often uses a graphic computer program to
design a part.
His job allows him to work any hours during a day as long as all of his tasks are well-completed. Also, he
was never asked to work extended hours.
Julio is proud of himself due to his confidence of understanding components and how machines work.
He said Datelines often gave him pressure. However, he learned how to handle the pressure. Other than
that, he was happy with his job.
Continuing Education
Because of affordable tuitions and different culture in engineering fields, Julio is planning to go back to
Germany in order to achieve his Masters degree. According him, engineers in Europe focus on their
tasks during their office hours and complete their tasks in a shorter amount of time than American
engineers takes.
Interview Analysis
This interview taught me about how to develop my skills to become a professional engineer and how to
conduct and interview.
Analysis of Mechanical Engineer as my Career Choice
Julio said mathematics was the hardest subject to him. Ive always enjoyed studying math and applying
math to real world situations sounds very interesting to me.
Julios father and uncles were police officers, and he thought he would work in law enforcement as
following their path. At the age of 17, he wanted to do something more creative. Thats why he chose to
become an engineer. His story made me think that I was wrong to underestimate my potential abilities.
Every time being frustrated with my busy schedules to handle both school and work, I blamed my
parents for not being college graduates. Julio chose a different path from his families and became an
engineer by his own efforts. If he did it, I can do it, too.
Closing
At the end of our conversation, he suggested to talk to other engineers such as one of his coworkers. I
would like to interview more engineers in future in order to stay inspired and learn more about the
engineering field.
