How on earth did you get the job?

Mike.

 

Thanks for the link.

Any good site on how to read Datasheets?

 

hi,

I dont want to rain on your parade, but if you need guidance on reading datasheets, how on earth are you going to be able to function as a component buyer.

Reading a datasheet to fully understand a component requires a lot of experience.

However, I do wish you the best of luck in your new job..

What component types analog/digital, passive etc, are you going to handle.?

Whats your location,?

How did you get this job without knowing how to read a datasheet. Is this April 15?

Edit: Intended to say April 1st. But for people in the US the 15th has a similar look and feel.
