Members Save On the COMVEC
Digital Summit

Volvo Group North America
It wasn't without having a certain
attitude and being strategic in his
thinking that Amol Gulve rose to
the position of Engineering
Manager at Volvo Group North
America. Lots of factors have gone into his 15-plus
years of success, perhaps none to a greater extent
than networking. He thinks current university
students would do well to establish a strong
commitment to networking from the very
beginning of their careers.
"Connecting with people is extremely important,
in any work environment, to keep abreast of
developments within your company and within
your industry," said Gulve, who uses SAE
International as one of his vehicles for
networking. Networking is also important in
terms of career development.
Although Gulve himself did not have the
opportunity to do so, he strongly advises
students to experience an internship or co-op so
they can "get that experience connected to the
academic side." As someone involved in the
hiring process at Volvo, he knows that these
mechanisms "really help you get an understanding
of where you want to take your career and really
help you understand how industries work.
Sometimes you may find that you may not like
your internship. But there's value in realizing that
you want to do something else."
Mentoring is another opportunity that students
would do well to take advantage of, he advises.
He himself is mentor to multiple individuals, and
believes mentoring "really helps lay the
foundation for the future."
