How I got here

My path to Jacobs

I had a fairly smooth route to this internship here. I've known about Jacobs for 3 years, and have known their reputation, their skill level, expertise, and almost instantly became super intruiged by what they do. At a NSBE fall regional conference, I came in contact with an engineer named Sherlock Banks, who pointed me in the direction of the CM/engineering route. Afterwards, I had an interview with a recruiter, and another interview with Pat, and now I'm here! I also got the chance to connect with more Jacobs crew at the NSBE Annual Convention in Baltimore, MD which was very refreshing!
