Hello

I am a mechanical engineer. I have advanced knowledge of Solidworks, meaning I know how to use every tab and command. But for design, that is for measurements, I only know how to use calipers and micrometers. Is this sufficient when I start a job?

      Greetings!Being proficient in SolidWorks is a valuable start. Especially in workplaces with direct contact with production, not only software knowledge, but also field experience, tolerance and ability to read technical drawings, understanding production methods etc. are gaining importance over time. Using calipers and micrometers may be enough to start, but if you’re going to work in the field, you’ll need to increase your variety of measurements over time.My advice would be to establish close contact with the production-related departments as soon as you start working and don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty 🙂 After all, most of the learning happens in the field. The good news is that many workplaces support this process and provide on-site training to new engineers. So, my only advice might be to improve your proficiency in the areas mentioned above until you start the right job.If you want to hear career stories from experienced engineers at the start of your career journey, you can check out our interviews on our ‘Career’ page: https://xometry.com.tr/tr/kariyer/I wish you success in your career and professional life from now on!
