Maintenance and Repair Workers, General
Scheduled maintenance, fault isolation, and component replacement on armament weapons support equipment transfer directly to equipment-focused maintenance and repair work.
How to prepare: Prepare resume examples of equipment faults you isolated and components you replaced, then target maintenance openings centered on machinery rather than building trades.
What the civilian work involves
- Perform routine maintenance, such as inspecting drives, motors, or belts, checking fluid levels, replacing filters, or doing other preventive maintenance actions.
- Inspect, operate, or test machinery or equipment to diagnose machine malfunctions.
- Repair machines, equipment, or structures, using tools such as hammers, hoists, saws, drills, wrenches, or equipment such as precision measuring instruments or electrical or electronic testing devices.
