Aug 2011 - Sep 2014
SMCS calibrate and repair electronic test equipment. I was qualified to a sufficient standard to be able to independently calibrate and certify customer equipment, as well as the companies internal standards. I also assisted in the repair of instruments, and was improving my fault diagnostic skills. Towards the start of my time at SMCS, I did a lot more work on the admin side of things. I processed and catalogued the companies entire stock of useful service manuals, and a good deal of those for sale. I am also competent at booking in and shipping out/closing down jobs. Show less
