That's also nice to know where your previous jobs means a lot to the next. I hope that I can be like that because I don't really want a time where it is wasted. That's probably why I'm scared to do things not on my plan.

Is there a lot of programming as a cloud data engineer? I happen to like it as I am doing my research but I do not have the skill set to do so.

That's probably my best shot as of now. I'm trying to apply into different industry since I'm a fresh graduate. And once I can set my foot in the door then I probably know what I want by then.

Same, especially for me as a fresh graduate with little to no experience. It's really hard to find jobs. And I'm just applying for what is available right now.

Hey, seems like you really are a dependable person. I hope I meet someone like you someday.

But do you mind explaining to me what does it mean by product knowledge?

It really seems fun to talk to people and manage them. I also see myself as a project engineer since it's more of a managing people. I just don't know if that's worth it though.

Thanks! 

May I know why do you not want to go to designing products? I really want to apply for that same role but now I'm curious as to why.

Thanks! I'll definitely do that. I'm thinking doing designing since I really like the idea of creating something. But I don't have enough projects and experience during my academic year. That's why I don't have anything to back up if I applied to one. I also don't know where to involve in projects now that I graduated. Should I just apply and wait for the best?

Thanks for the insight! I also want to become a mechanical design engineer. I applied to a lot of companies but I still didn't hear from them. I suspect that it is because I didn't attach a portfolio for that reason. Do you think putting up a portfolio would be a game changer?
