Episode 37 - Exit interview with Jared

In this episode, Paul interviews Jared Changizian right when he graduated from Cal Poly Pomona with his bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering. You can listen to Jared as a freshman in episode 14, as a sophomore in episode 19, and about 1.5 years before he graduated in episode 31. Paul and Jared are joined by Dr. Jessica Perez, a faculty member in the Center for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching at Cal Poly Pomona, who took part in the early interviews with Jared.

Jared discusses the hurdles he had to overcome along his journey, reflects upon how he evolved as a student and person during his time at Cal Poly Pomona, and gives advice for students who are just starting an undergraduate engineering program. He also provides ideas on how students can put themselves in a better position to get a job right after college.
