Re: Vacancy - Trainee AV Installations Engineer - Hertfordshire

Details sent via PM to all 3, cheers for your responses. Answers to some queries:

Qualifications/age - how long you've been out of university isn't an issue - although we said it would be suited to a recent graduate the job can always be adapted to suit the applicant if we think you're the right person to add to the business.

Driving licence - starting off, this won't be a problem, as all jobs will be with another engineer, the only thing to think about is getting to the office every day.

Salary - this is yet to be decided, as the job spec can be changed depending on the knowledge and experience of whoever takes the position

Re: Vacancy - Trainee AV Installations Engineer - Hertfordshire

Hi,
I'm guessing that the position will probably be filled by now, but I'm certainly interested in knowing more. Unfortunately I cannot go down in pay though as saving for a flat, so think I would need some more info on that for one thing and go from there.

Regards,

Dan.
