University Of California Riverside Work Values

Daily Duties at University Of California Riverside:

I was hired by the Technology Department to manage and maintain the Point-of-Sale system that was operated by the Housing and Dining Department. I would resolve issues with the systems hardware and database. When there was an issue I would get a message from the IT Department's Help Desk, I would go to the location and evaluate the situation. I would troubleshoot the issue, the issue could be resolved by either running a repair utility, to replacing a failed part, restaging and reprogramming a workstation, or escalating the issue to the infrastructure group to resolve a network issue. There are times that I needed to contact the Point-of-Sale manufacture to order replacement parts, or get assistance in resolving complex software issues. I would also train other IT staff members to repair issues with the equipment. I would also attend department meetings, to provide my expert analysis on the operation, and any questions that needed to be answered concerning the Point-of-Sale system.

What they like about University Of California Riverside:

Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.
