How I got my present job: I found my current job through my friends from BBA studies. They pointed me towards a company that was looking for a fresh BBA student who also had passion about engineering.

After that I just contacted the company and here we are!

Tips for those interested in this job area: Dont be afraid to pursue the career that you want! Try to make good connections throughout your life, because you never know from where you might find your dream career.

One of biggest mistakes was that I was looking for a job, but luckily through my previous jobs I found out that what I wanted was a career. So I started to figure out what my true passions were and then started to look for companies that would offer me what I wanted.

Also remember to be somewhat humble, you need to start from the bottom if you want to climb a tree.
