Network Engineer Review

Maintaining the internal company network, providing connectivity to offices. Decommissioning old equipment and replacing with new switches and routers.

I have improved my communication and teamwork skills, along with developing technical skills and learning how the internal systems and networks work.

It is quite enjoyable. There are days which are less enjoyable but overall quite fun and interesting.

There have been some hiccups along the way which prove that all is subject to change, however it has a somewhat decent level of organisation

A very high level of support from my line manager and other colleagues, along with regular checks that we are ok.

We have structured university days, with mostly relevant lectures however the university doesn't seem to support much outside of lectures and leaves quite a lot to be desired.

The content is somewhat relevant, however it doesn't personally help me in my role

Whilst I haven't personally been involved in any of the events there seems to be a wide range of options if I wanted to get involved.

Yes

They are a large employer and have many offices nationwide. They also have many opportunities for different job roles and you get to see the end to end processes if you are interested in learning

Always be open to learning, maintain good professional standards and accept any challenges and projects
