Exploring a Day in the Life: Field Service Engineering at Olympus EMEA
Last week, I had an insightful field visit with one of my colleagues, a Field Service Engineer, Søren Laursen. When tackling a new hiring challenge, I believe in getting hands-on to truly understand a specific role. So, I spent some quality time with Søren, digging into the details of his day-to-day, and here are some key questions I asked him:
• Where's the hotspot for job hunting in your field?
• Can you give me a sneak peek into your daily grind?
• What skills are non-negotiable and which ones can be coached?
• Let's talk tools and software – what's your tech arsenal?
• Soft skills – spill the secrets! What makes someone excel here?
• Sell me your role – what perks and opportunities come with it?
After this deep dive with him, I've got a clearer picture of the candidate profile. Highly recommend this immersive approach for Talent Acquisition Partners – it's a game-changer in early candidate assessment.
