Description
This Episode is very special to me as it was the very first episode I recorded with help of one of my best friends from university: Luis Raul Jimenez.
We chat about Chemical Engineering overall, going from recent graduate to a big company such as PepsiCo, climbing the corporate ladder, being a project engineer vs a field engineer and much more!
More importantly, we talked about Chemical Engineering, Entrepreneurship and the Gastronomic Industry. Raul shows us how Chemical Engineers can fit in any industry, for example, the Gastro and Food Delivery.
It is one of my priorities to find Chemical Engineers that are choosing the path as ENTREPRENEURS. I think that the world needs now more than ever new companies, new jobs and new products. Chemical Engineers must be going this way!
We will be doing a second episode so please let us know your doubts!
