I will try to phone trained engineers to see if I can join them and shadow them on jobs or I will just look at a fault screen hoping a job will come up that I can tag along to. Sometimes I will have planned training.
I have learned a lot since joininh
Don’t feel like I contribute much and waiting for work and often not getting any doesn’t make me feel good
Only thing that’s organised is the college dates and work, actual training barely had any organisation.
It’s rare that they have a proper solution to when you have a problem
Helped isn’t really needed off them to work towards the qualification
It helps you understand the theory behind your role
I don’t really know
No
Due to my experience working here, also there don’t have enough trained people to sort the trainees with a good workload
Be prepared to have to do a lot yourself
