Job+Shadow



I shadowed a close friend, Chris Keegan. He is a Manufacturer Manager at Boekel Scientific. The engineering company produces lab products like water baths, tube shakers and rotators, incubators, and ovens. He was able to show me how the metal was cut into the pieces for the product, the painting of the products, as well as many finished products. I experienced people working in stations who were fixing products that were sent back due to problems with the product. Also, a friend of my mentor's showed me the computerized drawings of the products, which I was very familiar with because of my techical drawing class. Overall, it was a great experience, meeting important people of the company, learning about the career, as well as learning life lessons.
