I start my day by conducting vehicle checks to ensure that it will be safe to drive to my jobs. Once this has been completed i sign onto my work portal and see what jobs have been allocated to me for the day. This could be installing a new fibre cable from poles to a house, or underground via ducts to a house. once the cable has been brought to the premises i need to install an ONT box inside the property and connect that, via another fibre cable, to the fibre being brought to the property, using a splicer, which fuses the 2 fibres together. I also work on faults if the customer i not experiencing the service they believed they would get or if they have a loss of services.
I have learnt a lot of new skills as i was not an engineer of any description before this. I would not have had any idea about splicing fibres together or how to connect cables to CBTs up poles
I really enjoy this programme. I only wish i had started this years ago
I feel that this is great. I am only just starting but it has been a positive couple of months
I get all the support i need. If i need extra time to complete work i am encourage to ask for this and allowances will be made in my day to allow for it
the training i have been given so far has been great
the trainers have been supportive so far in helping me when requied
there are lots of different course in which i can sit in on and develop myself. other than that, i am unaware of sports etc at the minute
Yes
they have been very supportive and the training has been great. i have already recommended to a friend
be honest during the application form and take it seriously. The company places great emphasis on safety and providing a great service to customers.
