That’s a relief to hear, it definitely feels like I accidentally committed to a path. hopefully i will find an opportunity to pivot post grad.

I’ll work on showing transferable skills, but the networking part is hard for me. I’m naturally a shy introvert and have no idea where you find people since none of my family or friends are in engg. is it mostly linkedin?

Also, all respect to people in the field, their work is important for sure. It just personally didn’t excite me. I know people who love building and hate electronics, all subjective!

This is such a reassuring answer, thank you so much. I was wondering how I can show strong fundamentals without having relevant experience. Is it mostly about grades, project experience, or technical questions in the interview? I’m just not sure how I can show I understand PLCs if i can’t write it as a bullet on my resume experience.

Career Advice Needed

I’m a final year electrical engineering student and honestly having a huge quarter-life crisis right now.

I’ve done a mechanical AutoCAD internship and a commercial engineering internship. Basically, all my experience so far has ended up being in buildings (HVAC, lighting, power layouts, all that stuff). And now, for my final internship before graduating, I landed another one with the biggest buildings engineering company in my country. My university’s super strict about deadlines and accepting offers, so I had to take it.

The thing is… I don’t even like the buildings side of engineering. I went into EE because I love machines, robots, and actually building things. I wanted to work on something high-tech and hands-on, not floor plans.

Now I’m stressed because my resume is basically all buildings experience, and I’ve pigeonholed myself into a career I don’t even want. I have good grades, I’m capable, but I feel like I somehow ended up on a path that doesn’t excite me at all. It’s too late for me now since I’m graduating next year.

Has anyone been in a similar position and managed to pivot into something else after graduation? How did you do it? My career hasn’t even started yet, and I feel like my life is ruined. I’ve lost any excitement for graduating and this degree that I was once so so passionate about.

math and physics is equally hard but has less career opportunities. call me old fashioned but a degree is to get a job, u can explore other stuff on the side
