I believe that as long as a person enjoys and is passionate about something they will not be discourage to stop trying. Besides classes, he actively went out to find internships with many companies and improve his coding skills. Jimmy was able to easily find a job after his degree due to his extracurriculars/internships. The best advice he could give me was to go out and seek for internships to put me ahead of others and a reason for a company to hire me over others, which I highly

I asked him about what made him choose his career path and then he went on to explain he could have never imagined doing what he does today back when he was in school. He went to the University of Iowa and while here switched his major multiple times until he finally ended up in accounting. He finished his degree and went on to work but realized that he absolutely hated what he did. He then got involved in some health IT work with a different company and eventually started doing it himself because he is a smart man and knew what gaps needed to be filled to make a better company than the one he ended up at.

I interviewed two people: an engineer with decades of experience, Roland Schneider, and an engineer with only a few years of experience, Jacob Carrano (my brother). Having two perspectives was beneficial because the commonalities solidified the important rules of writing as an engineer, while differences highlighted how writing can be different for an upper-level vs. low-level employee. Roland and Jacob said they mainly write email, work protocols, reports, and notes (during meetings, on drawings, etc) on a day-to-day basis. So, a mix of formal and informal writing is common for engineers. One form of writing mentioned only by Jacob was PowerPoint presentations.
