"I enjoy technical reading and writing challenges and consider myself to be a 'techie,' which is part of why I chose a career as a CNC Operator. I excelled in technical reading and writing while obtaining my Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Certification. My highest grades were in courses that focused on reading and interpreting specifications and blueprints and calculating dimensions. After graduating, I further developed my technical reading and writing skills while interning at Machine Shop ABC. Now, with eight years of experience as a CNC Operator, I can confidently say that my technical reading and writing skills are very well-honed. This combination of education and experience puts me at an 8.5 out of 10. I am very confident in my capabilities; however, there is always room for improvement and learning in an industry that is continually changing."
