AutoCAD Skills:
For the past couple of years, I have been performing AutoCAD drafting on a variety of civil
engineering plans as stated above. All four companies use what is known as “xref” drawings
for all types of drawings. I am very familiar with creating drawings using “xref”; viewports and
scaling up or down the base drawing as need (i.e. 20 scale, 40 scale, ect.). I know how to
develop spot elevations from Land Desktop using the “Profile” commands. I also desire to
learn how to create project surfaces and how to create profiles using the alignment and
terrain menus on Land Desktop.
In short, my goal is to become a design-drafter and later, become a senior designer. I want
to work for a firm that will help me learn and move forward with the additional engineering
design skills I am seeking. I am looking to obtain a position with a firm that can pair me with
an engineer or senior designer that can help train me so that I can become more valuable
asset to your company.
