Zak Sullivan moved into Junior Field Engineer

When the UK went into its first lockdown, I was studying for my IT and Computer Science A-Levels. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to finish them which left me feeling a bit lost, however, I decided that my next step should be to find a job in IT. When looking for a job in IT, what was being described in job descriptions made me feel quite out of my depth. That’s when I came across the IT Career Switch and the traineeship that they offer. I was sceptical at first, however, I can genuinely say that it’s worth the money and time if you want to feel more confident in your knowledge and make your CV look much more appetizing.

I found the Network+ course very interesting. There’s a wide variety of stuff that the course offers so there’s bound to be something for everyone! The practice labs experience was very valuable, I wish I spent more time on that.

I currently work at a very high profile events company as a Junior Field Engineer and I am absolutely loving it! No day is the same. I travel around Goodwood supporting all the staff there. Part of the job is preparing for Goodwood events which can get very chaotic but I’m extremely excited about it!
