Is it difficult to apply for a job in a field different from my major in engineer? [closed]
I graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering but am aiming to transition into a career in electronics. My GPA in mechanical engineering is very poor, but I’ve self-studied several electronics-related subjects and am continuing to work on areas where I still need improvement. Since my academic background doesn’t fully align with this new field, I’m considering creating a portfolio to showcase my skills and knowledge. Would this be a viable way to make a career change? Do you think transitioning into electronics is realistic for me? I am in a situation where pursuing graduate school is not an option, and it seems unlikely to be possible in the future as well. Even if I were to pursue a career that combines mechanical and electronics engineering, my low GPA in my major would still be a significant obstacle.
