My Interview
-
How would you describe yourself in 3 words?
Easy-going, confident and motivated.
What's the best thing you've done in your career?
Although not directly related to engineering, my biggest accomplishment was being accepted as a full time employee upon completing my apprenticeship.
Were you ever in trouble at school?
Quite a lot – nothing serious, but I was very talkative in class.
If you weren't doing this job, what would you choose instead?
I actually enjoy working as a barman in my spare time – but I wouldn’t have made a career out of this
Who is your favourite singer or band?
This question is more difficult than it should be… Currently, probably The Chainsmokers. I’ve also been listening to a lot of Conor Maynard’s covers.
What's your favourite food?
Pasta! This is largely affected by what sauce is served with it, but generally, if it’s a pasta based dish I’ll love it
What is the most fun thing you've done?
Definitely sky diving.
Tell us a joke.
Why do scuba divers fall backwards off of the boat? Because if they fell forward, they’d still be in the boat.
