Hi guys, I am looking to interview someone for general questions. This is a intro course into engineering for Florida Atlantic University. I'll post the questions below. Thanks in advance for any help!

1. A brief career and education biography of the engineer. (Name and the individual engineering degrees) (Last name only is fine if you do not feel comfortable with a full name.)

3. Find out what the person does in engineering on a daily and weekly basis.


4. Find out what the person’s role is in the company.


5. Find out what skills and tools the engineer uses regularly.


6. Discuss their perception of engineering now compared to when they started.

Sorry Pugnat. We no longer allow interview threads on the PF because of privacy issues. Hope you are able to find somebody in person.
