Meet Juliane Tosin
I was offered a job at the Volvo Group the same day I received my university diploma in mechanical engineering. It was 2004 and I was the first woman ever to be hired as a product engineer in Vehicle Engineering in Curitiba. Throughout all the years at the Volvo Group, I’ve always felt very strongly that I chose the right profession and the right place to work.
