I’m extremely unsure whether someone like me can get into a design institute
Thread Content
I have a bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering and Technology. I have 6 years of practical experience working in large-scale chemical plants, having been involved in two major projects designed by foreign companies. I was involved in the entire process from construction to commissioning, responsible for translating foreign-language documents such as operation manuals and training manuals. I also prepared various plans and process specifications. I am familiar with FCS/ITCC/ESD systems. Now I’m somewhat tired of working in factories and would like to switch to a career in design; I’m not sure if that would be a good fit for me I’ve almost forgotten all the calculations I learned in school before; I hope those who are more experienced can give me some guidance! And I’m extremely unsure whether someone like me can get into a design institute!
Reply to 1# solar789: As long as there’s a place to go, it doesn’t matter if it’s possible or not. Changing careers means starting from scratch and being willing to humble oneself. The problem is that large state-owned design firms usually seek fresh graduates from that year, while foreign-funded design firms and private design firms prefer candidates with design experience.
Guys are particularly suitable for working in the construction department of design firms – they have extensive on-site experience and are well-suited to guiding construction processes, installations, and equipment operation. When dealing with turnkey projects at design firms, this area represents a weakness; the construction department has shortcomings as it spends most of the time on project sites
Reply to 3# xu*n19831114: I have a certificate as an intermediate engineer as well as a certificate as a registered safety engineer. I’m not sure what kind of design firm I would be able to work for
Based on your experience, you should have no problem getting into a design institute; at the very least, you have the skills needed for debugging and operation. I’ve also seen people who move directly from factories to work in process design. It just depends on whether you’re willing to be humble enough to start from scratch.
I’m not afraid of not being able to do it; what I’m afraid of is having no ideas. With such determination and by striving toward that goal, it’s definitely possible to succeed
Dude, you’re totally qualified to work at a design institute! ! ! The employment system in large state-owned enterprises has flaws; they only recruit fresh graduates. For outstanding former graduates like you, working there would mean an advantage in terms of status – you wouldn’t have to be a full-time employee. CNPC, Sinopec, and CNOOC all have this problem.
Where is it? What treatment? What position? I don’t know what will happen?
Those that are needed are definitely useful; they’re essential. But it’s difficult to get into the larger complexes, while it’s possible to enter some of the category B complexes.
Hehe, writing that experience on a resume would be quite ridiculous
It can’t be the blueprint for Huangdao, right??
