Field Service Engineer Review

Our role is to carry out any tasks that are set. we arrive on site depending on the time the machines are available and we have to fix any problems which the machine may have. We also have to carry out system back ups and system uploads when machines fail or have had software problems. Furthermore we also have to take carry of any installations and machine upgrade which can happen.

I have developed my time keeping skills as it is important to be punctual as some rooms are only free for some time. I have also become more organized and can manage my work better and structure my work in order to complete it faster and better. My communications skills have also improved as I have more interaction with customers and some patients.

I love travelling around the country meeting new people and experiencing new places. I love learning about all the different machines located around the country and what each one is capable of doing. I also enjoy the fact that no two jobs are the same and every day has a new learning opportunity where I can learn and improve.

I feel that my programme is very well organised. We use outlook as a means of contact and to share our calendar which our manage which allows them to see what we have planed for the week and help us in case we need it. Also all jobs available and other documents can be located in the online portal and in case there are any problems, the call centre is always there to help.

I feel that I receive a lot of support form my employer. My manager can see what work I have planned during the week using an online calendar and advices me what is the best course of action. I also feel like I receive support from my employer with college work and I know I can spend more time at home if I ever need to catch up on some work.

I feel like I receive all the support needed from my training provider. I feel that whenever I encounter problems in college I can talk to my training provider and all problems are quickly sorted. I also feel that I understand how the qualification is important to my career and my training provider supports me with decision about my qualification.

I feel that my qualification helps me perform better as it gives me the theory behind the way the machine I work with function. Furthermore my qualification also teaches me the beginning of the technology I work with and what is being done in order to move the industry forward and what is done to make sure products are reliable and function properly.

There are team forums where the team gets together and discusses what is currently happening with in the business and what is being done from a management point of view and where the company is heading. Furthermore during these forums, engineers can discuss aspects they would like to see improved in the company and what can be done to improve employee's well being. Additionally at the end of the team forums, those available go to enjoy a day at an agreed place, such as go to see the races.

Yes

The company cares very deeply for all the employee's well being and are always looking for ways to improve the work environment. Additionally the company is one of the leading brands in healthcare engineering and are continuously coming up with new and improve machines which means it is a very stable position. Lastly the company offers many useful perks such as a work vehicle and health care packages so employee's can also have the best outside the work environment.

My advice would be to give all that they have to offer as the rewards are very good. This is a one in a live time opportunity and it would be a shame to throw this opportunity away. I would also advice that if anyone is looking for a one of a kind job where no day is the same this would be a great opportunity.
