Assistant technician Review

I do telecoms design engineering - i complete lots of 2D and 3D design on IT projects like data centres. Day-to-day i spend my time working with my team to complete deliverables to large companies

I have learnt to use software like Revit and AutoCAD and developed existing skills in general admin tasks and in coding.

I really enjoy my job. I find it challenging and supportive. Always new things to learn and discover. I do not enjoy my course however. It is a very broad course and only vaguely covers telecoms. It is heavily geared towards other parts of the course that i have no interest in and provide me with nothing but extra work.

There isnt a whole lot of structure in general its quite free flow. I enjoy it that way most of the time. All of my module leaders are usually cover teachers and my course leader has completely left. Its still early days of establishing what the course is.

I got lots of support in my early years but no i am a lot more settled and experience there is less need to however i am happy to say i think the support would be there if needed

My university do not really contact me at all. I work alone on the assignments and do not interact with course leaders outside of the classroom

I think my role and my qualification differ a lot. whilst that wasnt the inital intention, its the way things have gone that my role has changed and my course does not adapt to that.

there are plenty of social activities made available in the office and outside the office. Its not something a large amount of people attend but i think thats more specific to my team as ive heard others say they are always out with office friends

Yes

Its a very modern and friendly environment. Theres lots of space to grow and learn
