Finding the ideal job

My name is Maria Fernanda Hernandez. I’m 21 years old. I’m from Bogota Colombia but I live here since 2006. I’m studying Industrial Engineer at URBE. My parents live in Colombia and I live here with my uncle and my cousin. In my vacation I always go to Colombia to visit my family and friends, I miss all of them but I also have a big family here too, so T love Bogota and Maracaibo too.

I think the life teach you a lot of things about you. Until now I learn to know my strengths and weaknesses

Strength

  • Responsable
  • Organize
  • I always do my best
  • I’m a easy learning
Weaknesses

  • Shy
  • I’m a serious person
  • Sometimes I forgot things
  • I have a strong opinion and I don’t change it

I love my career, for me is the most important engineer because is the base of all organizations. The Industrial Engineer needs to know about systems, materials, quality, mathematics and others topics. I think is a beautiful career and very interesting too.

My ideal job have to be in the project planning area because is the Industrial area that enjoy the most, also I like to have to go around or work and treat a lot of people . In my ideal job I have to love the organization that I’m working in and have a good boss, also I like that the organization have a lot of benefic for their employees like parties and plays.

My ideal boss is someone that has to be a good leader, responsable and has a nice job method with his employees, also I love that my boss teach me a lot about the working and take my opinion in consideration. A ideal boss need to be like a mentor for me.

Here in Venezuela my career have a lot of field because in all the organization needs an Industrial Engineer but also this career have a lot of competition, for example here at URBE our classmates are the next competition on the work field, for beat that competition you need to be prepare and be a pretty good with you work. I think here in Venezuela have more opportunities that in others countries so I think that the Industrial Engineer need to be prepare for the competition.

I like to work in another country like Canada or France because I like to know about different work cultures and the pay is better, but if I work here it would be nice too. In my case I think I will work here because my cousin offer me a job that I think is a nice job, so in the future I have to work here but if the opportunity came for work in another country I took it.
