QUESTION 7 OF 37

What types of manufacturing technologies have you worked with?

If you are interviewing for a Design role, then you'll likely be asked about your experience with manufacturing. In Mechanical Engineering, this is often a combination of software experience (such as CAD) as well as direct or tangential experience working with a given manufacturing method. They may ask you specifically about the type of skill for which they are looking. If you have direct experience, then it is useful to start with that.

"I have direct experience with manual and CNC machining, which I learned in my internships as well as in my university's machine shop. I am comfortable working with SolidWorks 3D Modeling software, and I have designed parts for machining as well as laser cutting and sheet metal. I am interested in learning more about other manufacturing methods as well. If hired, I would do my best to leverage these experiences in addition to learning new skills."
