Love your honesty! Keep these reaction vids coming, its so important to hear different perspectives
Trying to keep it real!
his socal gas photo with the bread kills me 😂
Lol threw me off too
I hope to love my job as much as you love yours - watching your vids gets me so excited about my engineering career!
Good to hear!
Dude, you are literally amazing. I was deciding on whether or not to pursue civil engineering in college because it was the most interesting major to me, but I wasn't entirely sure. Your enthusiasm, positive attitude, and advice have really confirmed my own beliefs and I'm going to be pursuing Civil Engineering in college next year. Plus, you're hilarious!
I love this reaction💯
Engineering certainly won't close many doors for you, and shows that you are a hard worker! You can pivot as needed, but it certainly is a great backbone to jumpstart a career!
40hrs a week is actually considered very lucky!
Agreed! Never done it so far in my career lol maybe when theres a 3 day week lol
I remember watching wissam’s reaction to this video and he talked about how the guy in the video is notorious for just hating on engineering due to his past experience. I’m curious to see your reaction as well
Hope you enjoy! Haha
Kienen keep up the great content sir! I spent two years out of college utilizing my mechanical degree and have now transitioned into a sales role within the same company. Engineering can lead you into so many different roles that you may be passionate about...
Awesome. Good to hear Kyle
Just wanted to give you a huge thanks for your audience engagement. Learning just as much from reading your responses to comments as I am watching the videos!
When I was in high school and trying to choose my major, I actually watched Matt and really enjoyed his videos. He was making quality content reviewing college majors from a brutally honest standpoint and his videos are part of why I picked engineering over other fields. However, he started pivoting in the next few years and it really made me second guess majoring in engineering or even going to college at all. In fact, I think this video was released right before I started applying to colleges.
Luckily I didn’t let the video influence my decision, because I really like engineering and 100% would’ve regretted not doing it. Videos like his are really negative and discouraging, and I’m not sure if they realize it, but people actually listen to their advice. Glad people like you and Wissam have a different perspective than he does, it’s really important that prospective engineering students hear both sides of the story before making a decision that changes their life forever.
Awesome to hear! Thanks David!
Much love and support from Samoa
thank you so much!
Hi can you make a video about the differences between civil and construction engineering (if any) in the industry and the academic difference as well.
Liking your videos and you have motivated me to become a better student. Thank you so much.
I have been sitting on my Lanai (aka balcony) watching Azure Ala Moana being constructed from the ground up. Sometimes I walk around this building to fill in the blanks. This channel has really helped me in understanding what is happening. I wish you would do an episode on high rise plumbing which is still a mystery to me.
Fam thanks for your amazing videos, i have been thinking about changing my program from accountancy to civil engineering, but am a commercial student in high school, my question is? is it compulsory to have a physic background before going for engineering courses?
“He had me in the first half” 😂
Lol he really did
Hi Kienen, thank you for your video. I am a Chinese who want to start my career in Canada. Currently, I'm studying energy management, I learned Civil Engineer in China and worked in tunnel and bridge sites for 3 years as a technician. I wonder what skills and softwares should I learn to be able to work here. I only can use CAD and basic staff. Thank you！
Hey Kienen, I m from Nepal and going to complete my bachelor in civil engineering. So, my question is Will it be the best to study master in construction management and live my career as construction manager or just do transportation/structural and still be construction manager? Which will be best?
You did a really good job pointing out some of the biased advice from this video. It does seem like he is entirely chasing money. Like what is software development is not for you? I like that you emphasize the passion aspect on your channel, and that it is okay to turn away after giving it a try.
Also, props for noticing the bread and tattoo thing! Hilarious!
Thank you so much Ashlyn!
Make a What are the Prons and Cons of switching Major in master's program kinen
Can you please make a video on office jobs one can do after completing a masters degree in construction management.. I know this may sound illogical but please.. or at least can you cover this topic in some video?! That would be really appreciated!!
Where should I go for masters in civil engineering for highest pay ? Project , construction or?? I need your advice❤️ really appreciated
Quick question. I’m currently a civil engineering major going into my junior year. I wasn’t able to land an internship this summer. Is it a big deal?
not ideal, but not the end of the world. I would still poke around and see if there's anyone related to the industry hiring....some experience is better than none.
which softwares are must for civil engineer or project manager?
I am also civil engineer looking for masters but can't decide in which subject I should go with??
Keenan, make a video of how you make a submittal log early enough in the project
Lol what a dream that would be...but yeah thinking of doing more technical topics
@@KienenKogato give you my personal experience, sometimes a sub might send me a submittal, and I missed it when they sent it to me from getting all these other emails. Then weeks past by and it all goes to shits because the submittal never got approved.
@@KienenKoga I’d love to hear some organizational tips to keep myself up to speed with the pace of the project
another great resource if you are struggling to find a job is to connect with professional organizations! I graduated with my civil degree w/o any internship experience and was fortunate to get a job after graduating. All of my other classmates that had internships had a job lined up for them so I was under the impression that I "fell behind". Don't fall into this mindset! If you're motivated enough to put in the hard work, you'll be rewarded. It was a hard grind for me but I managed to do it by developing my network through joining professional organizations, attending their events, and conducting as many informational interviews as I could!
Well said Aldridge!
I'm getting my certificate in CPM trying to break into the industry! Video on thoughts degree vs certificate maybe?! lol
can you do a house tour next or maby your set up and like work or at home
Hey I’m 14 and would like to know more about project engineering and like more into detail about what you do
Hey, I am finishing up my degree here in the next month. I majored in marketing. I realized my passion late in the game. I have a summer internship with a construction company following the project engineer route as of now. Do you have any tips that might help me along the way? Or any good books I can purchase to increase my chances at success. Thank You!
Dont be afraid to embrace the chaos and prioritize field knowledge. Youll learn more by staying at work than reading any book. Even if they dont pay you, if youre eager to learn, stay on the job and learn
@@KienenKoga
Thank you! I am trying to learn as much as possible in the field right now. Learning how to read drawings and what not. I am very happy about my opportunity and will try to maximize my experience. Thank you again. Love your videos BTW
Man...I just decided to choose civil engineering major after watching this video; no matter what that bald guy said. So much appreciated and will wait to get for new uploading videos.!
I have done Bachelor's in Architecture. Am I eligible to join Masters's in Construction management course? Since I haven't done Bachelor of Civil Engineering, Does this matter in my future career if I choose this course at the Masters level? Thankyou.. love your content
It probably depends on the school. Check each programs required prerequisites as it may change fron school to school
Just throwing my $0.02 out there, the first facebook post he talks about didn't have any internships in college. This is why you MUST get internships. It gets your foot in the door at the company, and gives you a great resume builder. I'm sure you're going to say the same thing later in the video, I just wanted to say my thoughts as I saw this part.
Completely agree! Experience is everything
👍👍👍👍👍👌 nice video
Thanks Cleon!
Just got a LinkedIn ad here 15:54 lols
Lol damn can escape em
When’s the next video coming bro? 🔥
today! haha
I majored in engineering and I do not know any engineering major who is unemployed atm. Also I migrated to software engineering from electrical engineering and I see a lot of software engineers who have an electrical background. If you can't find a job a good electrical engineer or civil engineer, maybe you are in the wrong part of the country or the world and maybe it has less to do with your major.
I think the main problem with mechanical engineering is its hard to do engineering on your own in a very small fast paced environment. most of the time you need a massive factory, tons of machines and equipment.. CS you literally need just a computer and server. so its also it skews heavy towards defense contarctors... its a whole different lifestyle.
I'm about to leave high-school and I'm applying to do an associates degree in construction engineering
Awesome!
@@KienenKoga i was lost as to what I wanted to do but after coming across your channel i finally found the direction I want to go in life. Thank you
To me i dont care if i dont get paid at all just do what i love😂
Love it haha
in the US it is like that with software engineering paying so much more than other fields but like for example in EU its bs, IT does not really pay that much better than other fields in general and well none of them is easier and both are equally stressful. For me it looks like he is trying to sell his product to people.
This guys is super focussed on money, in South Africa an engineer's salary could be anything from 20k to 100k per month, the best you can do is focus on what to do and enjoy what you do, the finance tends to just balance out😉
Alooooha! 🌺
🤙
I think I’ll stick to your channel instead of his hahahah
Lol thanks Mari!!
Hey kienen can.you give me a list of CXC subjects to need to study for C E
Lol sorry whats cxc?
Its an test you take at higth school to go to.collage
Did you do math and english in higth before you went to collage
@Christian Lopez i will any thing ot takes to be a civil engineer
To understand what he believes, we should be in his shoes.
MZ generation is in a transition period of growth curve. Nobody knows it will go up or it will go down. Expectedly, it will go up though.
The point is the job market. From 1900s to 2000s, the market had been growing based on engineering based industries such as civil, mechanical, electrical, and so on and so forth. I believe the market nowadays is growing based on mainly based on computer industry from the 2010s. When Matt the bald entered the job market, it was like computer tech and engineering tech is combining. In other words, all the miscellaneous tasks were getting digitalized and the required minimum workforce were getting reduced. Say, less job opportunities. It may seem like they are declining industries, actually not tho.
Another point is the money market. The market grows so fast. I mean, insanely fast. It is good one though. But it may be nightmare to MZ. Knowing that stock market fluctuating insanely, the gap between earned income and captital income is getting bigger. It is not bad. It is how capitalism works. The sad point is, it may demotivate many young guys who dream to climb the hierarchy of social class. It is a half fact that it is really hard to climb.
So, what Matt sees.. What MZ sees is the gap between expectation and reality. They expected stable future but it may be not based on reasons above.
He has a point. Do not go engineering like me who ain't know a shit about it. Very true.
The sad point is, he talks like he knows everything about engineering. He ain't know a shit tho.
Great points! Thanks for sharing 🤙
♥♥♥♥♥♥
Thanks Doreen!!
Civil engineering specialization next video please hehehe🥰😅
You have unemployment engineers problem even in USA!! Wow
Unfortunately it is there, the pandemic hasnt helped too, but for the most part engineers can get work somewhere it just may not be their first choice
@@KienenKoga Is it possible to join construction field in USA as an immigrant holding bs degree in engineering?
That guy is actually kinda weird. Why does he pause for so long!? 😂
He wasn’t the right person for the job
This guy is the worst..doesn't even know which of Newton's laws he tattooed on himself. Have you seen Tren Black's video on him?
No, I’ll check it out!
But yeah that wasnt a great moment lol
@@KienenKoga czcams.com/video/zFbeyeQ2cCs/video.html here you go if you haven't found it
its not your video is bad, but the video that you react to is not coming with good argumentation, so I cant watch till the end. once the mention money, i just go "meh".... money just take you to rat race.... theres no end to that
