Key Points
Join Kirk and Fred as they discuss some of the best ways to get into a job that fits with your skills.
Topics include:
- Don’t wait until you need a new job to start connecting with others and getting to make yourself known to others through conferences, external professional organizations, and internally to different departments in your current company

- Sometimes being successful in a job and training others in how to do your job can result in you no longer being needed and out of work.
- Be curious, explore other departments and manufacturing processes, go to conferences and continue learning new technologies.

Please click on this link to access a relatively new analysis of traditional reliability prediction methods article from the US ARMY and CALCE titled “Reliability Prediction – Continued Reliance on a Misleading Approach”. It is in the public domain, so please feel free to distribute it. Attempting to predict reliability is a misleading and costly approach to use for developing a reliable system.
