Hello:
I am a writer for a career counseling website directed at high school students - MyRoad.com.

I would like to interview a manufacturing welder (rather than a construction welder) who has an associate's degree or a certificate, but not a bachelor's degree (we are trying to reach out to students who don't necessarily want to go to college).

Can you help me?

The interview would be very brief -- the questions are below. You could just e-mail me back answers to my address -- rkidd@myroad.com-- or if you prefer we could talk on the phone.

Here's is an example of a finished interview on our website:

Thanks to anyone who will help me. Giving a little time for an interview like this could really help someone find their career path.
