Active in climbing poles, ladder use, aerial lift truck operations, and confined space operations. Emphasis placed on exceeding company expectations, customer service and people skills.

What they like about At&T:

You give high priority to hiring firms with prestige. Market reputation and prestige of a firm may be determined through on-line research, and conversations with individuals working in your target industry. Note that firms "in the public eye" receive a great deal more critical publicity and attention than those operating with more anonymity. So as you assess your employment opportunities, be sure to seek out the positive aspects of the firm's reputation in addition to noting negative publicity the company may have received.
