Fresh out of college and with a brand new, totally usable
engineering degree, and I had no idea what I wanted to do with it. My whole
family is made of engineers. It was never a question of whether I would be an
engineer. It wasn’t even a question of employability – I had worked with a
number of firms on a variety of projects throughout my years of study, many of
which were ready to hire me on graduation. But I just didn’t particularly fancy
any of them. Then, by chance, as I was browsing an engineering magazine, hoping
for inspiration, I happened to read about Perceptive Industries.
The people at Perceptive Industries are
industrial oven manufacturers. Right away this caught my attention because it
was unique – at least, it was unique to my family. I browsed through their
website and gave them a call. They were kind enough to show me around their
plant and I learned all about draw ovens, industrial conveyor ovens, stress
relieving ovens, and all sorts of things that their team – which included many
engineers – worked on.
I am now actively looking for a position as part of a team of
industrial oven manufacturers. I’m so happy I found something to do with my
skills. The position I had been working the year and a half since graduating
was not fulfilling or interesting in the least. Though I don’t know a lot about
industrial oven manufacturing, I am very excited to learn and very grateful to
Perceptive Industries for helping me spark my interest.
