Long gone were the days when engineering was only about the technical work! Today, you can take your technical skills, flip it, and use it in a way that’s never been possible before — and this episode is proof of that. 👇
Today’s guest is David Jasinski, a geologist who built a career in the geotechnical industry and has done work in many, many countries that’s even hard to keep track of them all. 😅
Along the way, he transitioned into a more business development role selling sheet piles and other geotech products…and that’s when he got started with social media content.
Now, he’s amassed more than 141,000 followers on LinkedIn alone and become the go-to person for engineering firms to partner with to share their message and educate their customers on the products they sell.
(Who said engineers cannot be influencers? 😂)
If you’re a young engineer worried about the options for you in the field, this episode is a testament to the fact that engineering can take you way further than you even think possible.
Go give this a listen to find out how you can pair your engineering skills with other business-related skills to build a “non-traditional career”...that makes all the sense to you!
