Abstract A:
The training and certification of EMC personnel to work in the automotive industry requires a unique and remarkably broad range of education, experience and talents. The growth path for someone looking to make this avenue a career choice will likely take them into many areas where they originally had not planned to go. Along the way, expect to roll up your sleeves, and get your hands dirty.
Abstract B:
Deciding on a career direction is usually not the first thing on a new
graduate's mind. But, just finding a 'job' may cause someone to 'settle' for the
career that happens to them as opposed to the career they build by intention.
Some early soul searching and honest assessment of the new engineers interests
and capabilities may make a critical difference in the long term path they
choose.
