Top Insider Advice

The advise that I can give is to stay humble. Even though you graduated with good GPAs, honor or dean’s list, you do not know everything. There is somebody who can do something better than you. It is ok that you do not know everything. Observe, talk and learn from people around you as much as you can.

Company

What do you like about your job and the company?

Everyday, I encounter new challenges and there is always something new to learn. It is not always possible to do these works by myself. However, my favorite part of this job is that team members teach and help each other to work through new challenges, and see my growth everyday.

Greatest achievements

During senior year at college, I worked as peer advisor at mechanical and aerospace engineering department. As a peer advisor, I gave advise regarding not only class schedules but also students’ activities, and other social life at college. There was one student visited my office hours asking help for his schedule. I found out that he is from Japan, same as me, and had a lot of questions in school life as he recently entered college. Even after I graduated, the student asked me for career path advise. Of course it was fun to interact with lots of students in same department but also I am proud of being able to help career success.

Top Insider Advice

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!
