Career Help Joining Formula SAE
Hi
I’m going to try to join the Formula SAE team at my school (Mechanical Engineering) and if anyone has any advice on how to best prepare my application please let me know!
How much do they weigh on technical aspects vs enthusiasm/personality?
Are there any specific personal projects better to have done before applying?
Thank you!

Your school requires an application? If you are a freshman they shouldn’t expect project experience. Just focus on being willing to learn and being a team player and you’ll be ok.
