Student support is model for industry
Amplicon Commercial Director Gina Citroni made a call to arms this week for electrical engineering firms to do more to encourage graduates to look at a career in sales engineering
Presenting the Amplicon Liveline Student Awards, Citroni said: 'We are very proud to support Brighton University because we really must continue to drive top quality people into our industry'. 'Very few managing directors don't have a sales engineering background'. 'We need young men and women taking their fantastic engineering expertise and using it within a commercial environment'.
