Overview
My role as Engineering Plant Support involves supporting the production line in their engineering needs. Anything that would go wrong on the production line comes to this team for support: from part shortages to fouling issues, even including engine breakdowns in its early service hours.
Skills
Through both of the roles I have worked this year, I learned and developed very valuable skills: project leading, communication, work in a high-pressure environment...
Responsibilities
Yes. As placements at Cummins, we get given the exact same work as all other full-time employees; from Day 1. This develops a strong sense of trust and accountability
Support & Guidance
A lot. Especially at the beginning, of course. Each placement student is assigned to an employee; and they will support us all through the year by providing training, feedback, and general help!
Culture
Very good company culture. They hire to develop and it shows. All high-level employees in the company that I've come in contact with started as regular employees, some even in internships or placements. The company expresses the values it supports and actually does meaningful work to work toward them, supporting its employees to strive in their work, and personal and professional values.
Your Impressions
Very much! I had a great time here, I enjoyed the work, and I developed hugely personally and professionally.
Yes
Be yourself and show you're passionate and/or genuinely interested in the company and position!
