In this video we can see something they call the second industrial revolution. This one is inspired on a principle of the nature where waste doesn’t exist, everything is used again as nutrition, so we can do the same about industrial waste and reuse the products when they finish their useful life, we can use them as “nutrition” for new products. As an industrial engineer we always are looking for ways to improve productivity by reducing costs and we are also responsible for the environment and how the activities for the industries affect it, so according to this video we can solve both issues applying this principle of the nature. Just take a look to the video, is very interesting..

JOB INTERVIEW tips
It is important to know that any job interview is like other, they are all alike and we must be prepared for any circumstance that may happen during the interview. For example, sometimes we think we are going to be interviewed for one person and then, when we arrive to the interview, we found out that it will be a group of persons who will be evaluating us. First, It is very, very important to make a great impression, make eye contact, smile, and give a nice, firm handshake to the interviewer when you met him or her. Then, make sure you wait to sit down until the interviewer asks you to sit down. Don't put your stuffs on his or her desk. You should keep your things to your side or in your lap, and wait until you're asked a question until you start speaking. The first saw is the one that counts, so, we always should dress for the position that we really want in a long term, rather than the position you are applying for today. Women should not wear a lot of make-up and jewelry. And for both, women and men, clothes and must be clean and in good shape. We should be prepared also, for questions like: How would you handle this situation? That the employer may ask.
If the Interview is in a restaurant or café, is probably because the employer wants to see if we have the appropriate etiquette skills, so it is important to have them! To know table etiquette and, also stay focused in the interview as those places are very noisy, and of course we must speak at a very good level so can be heard for the employer.
As soon as you notice that the interview is over, you have to leave, so stand up, thank them again and don't forget to ask for the job before you leave.

Dear Mr. Schwarz:
I read your advertisement in monster.com for the position of Projects and Procedures Manager and I am interested in applying for the post. The position seems to fit very well with my education and career interests.
I am a very young and proactive recent graduate, and my academic background makes me a very qualified candidate. I have the ability in cost analysis, financial planning, process flow charts, and initiative in finding ways to improve the management. I also have knowledge about security and quality rules and their applications. As it is mentioned in my resume, for community service I made a SHA procedure manual for the San Onofre Church. I am very interested in the position and in working for such a well-known company as Vought Aircraft Industries, and it seems that my career goals match a lot with your job requirements since I am committed in production, problem solving and challenges of the company.
Would you please consider my request for a personal interview to discuss further my qualifications and to learn more about this opportunity?

Interview
Interviewed: Andrés Villalobos
1. What influenced you to pursue Electronics engineering?
Since I was a child I liked everything about circuits and I always liked to open computers to see how they were inside and how they worked, I’ve always been very curious and also I know that electronics engineering is a career that I will be able to find a job in other countries very easy with.
2. Could you please describe the educational process required to become an Engineer? Well, after I graduated from high school, I entered in the university and there you see subjects like: math, physics, digital electronics, computer drawing, Algorithm and Programming, Circuits and Networks, Data Transmission, Electromagnetic Theory, Telecommunication Networks, Antennas and Propagation, Mobile Communications, microwaves, and others.
3. From your perspective, what is the most difficult part of being an engineering student? I think that engineering students are the ones that have to be more applied, they need to love their career and study a lot. Sometimes is mandatory to resign to some travels or some activities that may interfere in your studies.
4. What are your plans for the future? My plan is to graduate and if I’m able for that time, work here in Venezuela in a large telecommunication company such as movistar, and I would like to own a Mountaineering school here in Maracaibo, because I practice mountain climbing.
5. Why would you recommend Engineering as a career? I would recommend this career only for those people who really love this, because it is not easy, but it is very rewarding and it is practically a new career most, here in Venezuela and is the career of the future.
