I once told someone that I looked up to that I wanted to "Be just like them one day." She looked at me and replied, "You don't want to be like me, there is only one you. Be like you." This message has continued to stick with me over the past years. When looking for a new opportunity, you want to be considered for who you are as your whole self. There is no reason to conform to what you think the company or employer wants you to be, no job or company is worth sacrificing who you are. Always seek out varying opinions and surround yourself with people that will challenge you. Ask how you can improve, admit when you make mistakes, and be there to inspire and create change in others when given the opportunity.

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!
