  This position was focused on customer service. I worked at a help desk where students and faculty brought in their laptops. I was responsible for helping to diagnose the problem by troubleshooting and asking questions. I was also responsible for helping professors with the technology in classrooms. This would sometimes be done over the phone. The desk was next to a computer lab, so I was also in charge of filling printers with paper and helping students connect to wi-fi.
