Technical duties: *Geotechnical analysis (SPT, CPT, and permeability). *Quality assurance (stock takes, receiving orders, checking shipments, client QA correspondence). *Field data collection (providing surveyors, project managers, and quantity surveyors with the right intel to claim project costs from the client).*Environmental compliance. Labouring duties: *String-lining. *Plate compaction. *Utility and drainage installation. *Exposing utilities.*Settlement pins. *Erosion controls.*Machine maintenance.For civil engineering students, a minimum of 800 hours industry related work experience is required prior to graduation. This was a hands-on learning role with duties being split 50-50 between office and labouring duties.For me, this meant going from learning about civil engineering design principles from an air conditioned university theatre and then waking up at four in the morning to drive 45min to build parking lots in rural suburbia for twelve hours. Six days a week. For an entire summer. Working alongside crew members that have known this type of work schedule for decades, I learned tremendous humility.

Working closely with an Employee Benefits Consultant to reach key decision makers in the Shanghai expat community. Providing written and spoken interpreting services for English to Mandarin and vice versa. Employee benefit packages is big business in the mainland and it's especially true for it's largest city which can only be said to be in a league of it's own. No amount of prior working experience from living in Oceania could have helped me to anticipate the disparity in social norms and how business is conducted in Shanghai. As a Shanghai born native, I enjoyed the ease of interacting with prospects from a local's perspective and conveyed that sense of familiarity to entice a meeting with our consultant who would then progress deals to stage 4 (value proposition).

Setting up and manning promotional stalls on behalf of Promostaff NZ for The Warehouse Group, Noel Leeming, Warehouse Stationery, Countdown, and JB Hifi. The role proved to be much more demanding on the job than anticipated. Since we were considered contractors working on behalf on an agency, it was critical that we met quota requirements to keep the hiring brands satisfied. With survival instinct, we learned how to identify purchase signals and the importance of prioritising qualified leads over false prospects. Insights gleaned on the job: *Genuine buyers are almost always impulsive buyers. Hardselling via deliberation on the product benefits' is rarely required when you're dealing with a customer that is in the market for said product. They readily buy without much reiteration beyond the intial prospecting. A simple 'hey bro, have you had your daily dose of caffeine yet?' was more than enough to close a sale. *False buyers easily displace genuine buyers when you spend too long interacting with them because genuine buyers absolutely refuse to wait for your attention. *The model of iPhone a person had was an eerily accurate indicator of their willingness to make purchases. Without fail, the person that was using an outdated iPhone model would require the product enquiry of a forensic analysis before even considering the notion to buy.

Assembling, maintaining, and repairing bicycles on behalf of Malcove Distributors for The Warehouse Group. You know those mass market bicycles they sell at The Warehouse (largest retail franchise in NZ) that come with an extended repair warranty? Those sold well because they were affordable and designed in a way that appealed to young children. However, those bikes didn't come pre-assembled. Many folks didn't end up buying because they didn't want to go through the hassle of having to carry an oversized package home and still have to meticulously assemble their bike from scratch. Our boss Brent was the first to come up with the brilliant idea of contracting us out to The Warehouse Group for customers that wanted pre-assembled bikes in exchange for a modest fee.For a high school senior, this was a considerably fulfilling first job. I had the privilege of travelling all over Auckland and since we were contractors, we were paid entirely based on job completion. Because I hadn't obtained my drivers license at the time, I relied upon carpooling with friendly coworkers. In the beginning, my more experienced coworkers would hit quota much sooner which created a sense of urgency since it meant they would leave for the next location while I stayed behind. Had I continued to lag behind, I'd not only miss out on better earnings but also a means of transport. This is where I learned firsthand the importance of working efficiently with speed, precision, and a sense of urgency.
