Discuss As the employer what questions would you ask service/breakdown engineer at interview? in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net
What do you know about my business, that's always my first question. If they don't know anything then it's the shortest interview ever! Don't want someone who isn't at all interested in my business!
Good luck tomorrow, hope it goes well.
Every company I have had an interview with ask me that and I always answered not a lot to be honest. What do they want you to turn around and say? what is on the website word for word as 9/10 that is utter rubbish anyway as every company always says the same.
I always go and say the same thing I'm hard working, been working in the trade x amount of time I can do this that and the other I take great pride in my work at other companies I have done this to help things work better/ more efficient.
The main thing with social housing work is can you sign your own name as that's all their worried about you putting your name to a boiler what ever the state of it.
If you get it buy a camera with time/date on it and a scanner as I was going around condemning boilers filling out the paperwork and someone else was going round after me turning them all back on so in the end I was taking photos and scanning the warning notice as there was never any history of who went back to turn them on. Also don't work late! They will get used to it and you will get more and more work to the point that you will be working 7am-9pm.
Thought I would update. Interview went ok, didn't ask a great deal about myself just what I have been doing really and then explained the role to me and a bit about the company. Hard to tell if I will get a job out of it or not. I'm happy to do a bit of overtime as it's all paid, when I stay past half 4 now i'm working for free and it happens more often than I would like. I have been told that I will be hearing within a week if I am successful or not. The test paper was ok, I didn't have a lot of time to answer the questions but I either knew the right answers or was on the right track with the majority of them. If I didn't know something I said that's something I would have to revise. Just a matter of waiting now, it's a company I would like to work for and I think I could learn a lot. Fingers crossed. Thanks to everyone for your replies.
I echo that ash, all the best fella!Fingers crossed ash!
