Welcome, Maxim! Our new trainee as an IT systems technician

Also in 2021, it was pretty sure for us at spo-comm that we wanted to have a new trainee. In this year, we searched for an IT systems technician and successfully found someone: Maxim Hahn started on September 1st 2021 and we from marketing almost immediately had some interview questions for him.

Marketing: Hello Maxim and thanks for taking the time. So, how was the time since you started your training?
Maxim: It was very good, thank you. Of course, I have only been here for one month and two weeks of that time I was at the vocational school. But the time I had at the spo-comm headquarters was awesome. The welcome into the team was very good from all of the colleagues.

Marketing: That sounds great. What are your tasks at spo-comm?
Maxim: From my first day on, I helped building the Mini-PCs. Sometimes in the service department, but mostly in our production. Like that, I was able to learn so much about the different systems. Also, the procedures from an incoming order to the shipping of a built Mini-PC were shown to me, so that I can already independently do many tasks.

Marketing: You seem to be pretty familiar with PCs. Is that why you chose this particular training?
Maxim: Yes, sort of. By playing computer games I soon developed a general interest for PCs and the technique behind it. By the age of 15, I built my first own PC. It seemed, I was pretty good at that because as time went by, more and more friends and family wanted me to help them with fixing their hard or software. Right after my A levels I started to study business, but noticed very fast, that this wasn’t the right thing for me. Since I was so comfortable in the IT field, I searched for a training in that branch.

Marketing: And how did you find the spo-comm?
Maxim: I saw an online job ad. The topics and tasks were very exciting. Also the website was very appealing, the team seemed friendly and that’s why I applied for the job.

Marketing: We are very happy to have you in our team ? How did you like the time at the vocational school?
Maxim: Well, the first two weeks of the first year were still a bit chaotic and full of new information. But in general, I think the topics in the different subjects are going to be interesting, such as application programming and “IT and technology”.

Marketing: One last question: What is (even after such a short time) your favourite Mini-PC?
Maxim: Until now I would say the BOX J4125 has found a place in my heart. Especially for beginners, it is perfect so built. It is constructed very clearly and by that, is also easy to fix. I think it’s impressive how such a small PC can have such a high performance.
