One thing that stands out in a candidate is their confidence and ability to own their prior experience. It is incredible to learn about the different paths everyone takes to get to Micron, so be sure to highlight those things that have gotten you to where you are! Unique experiences make for memorable candidates. Reach out to people when you can to build relationships, I know this can be challenging but having a personal connection is extremely beneficial. Utilize career fairs, networking events, and platforms just like this! For process engineers coming to Micron fresh out of their Bachelor's Degree, I highly recommend a Statistics class or any type of semiconductor/thin films courses. For technicians and equipment engineer positions, any hands on troubleshooting experience you have will be very valuable. This can even be troubleshooting related to your personal life (appliances, cars, etc.). We want to see how you think and troubleshoot!

Top Insider Advice
As a young adult and early career professional, you may have an idea of what you want to do or achieve long-term, i.e. your passion and main driving force, or maybe you don't and are still looking for something that sparks meaning. Either one is okay! The most important thing is that you are authentically you. It takes a lot of courage and self-awareness to identify your strengths and opportunities for growth -- both of which can be hard! If you are constantly putting yourself down or downplaying your accomplishments, you may not feel like you have a lot of strengths. In that case, you need to allow yourself to be comfortable speaking about your successes and accomplishments, even though it may feel like bragging. In fact, it's a great skill to be able to brag, because that is how you sell yourself! Practice by writing down a brag sheet and rehearsing a couple elevator pitches where you share something cool that you recently worked on, such as a project milestone (even small ones!) or a problem that stumped you for a while (those take tenacity and grit!). These should boost your confidence when networking and interviewing. Re-framing what you perceive to be your "weaknesses" as Opportunities is a great way to pivot from a fixed to a growth mindset. We are not defined by our problems but by how we choose to approach them. Take a look at yourself regularly and reflect on what has been giving you problems lately. You can also ask for feedback from anyone you work or collaborate with. It can be tough to put yourself in a vulnerable position like that, but you will gain so much insight and potentially learn something about yourself. After identifying your problem spots, research ways you can tangibly improve. Are there any new skills you could learn, articles or books you can read, experts you can reach out to?
