My Personality
Before I choose a job, it is important that I need to understand my personality. When I did the personality color test, my primary personality color was green which is I like to be challenged in careers and I like to develop models. Mechanical Engineer should be very hard and need to focus on that but, it can be fun also when Mechanical Engineer design stuff. I like designing and making which is my hobby. Mechanical Engineer also need to be good at math that it requires Linear graph of Algebra and the other kinds of math. The most important thing that math is required is computers do not make traditional mathematical analysis. Because the Mechanical Enginner needs to be good at math, I have to be Calm, Cool, and Investigative.

Career Choices
If I choose a career, I think Mechanical Engineer would be a good choice for me. Mechanical Engineer earns average salary of $83,060 per year and need at least bachelor's degree to be a Mechanical Engineer. Mechanical Engineers design tools, engines, machines, and other mechanically functioning equipment. It requires Math and Science skill. Mechanical Engineer uses mathematics to solve which part are needed and requires Linear graph of Algebra and other kinds of math. This is the reason that I wanted to become a Mechanical Engineer because I can be challenged and I have a lot of experience with math. But, the job outlooks are less likely in the future.
