Completed by: Matthew Heilmann on 08/14/2012

Project Description

We have computer networks for our staff to provide our services. Each person has their own laptop and there are desktops set up. He was the IT person that supported our network.

Cultural Environment

Usually about twice a week it would get crazy with computer issues and he handled all of the problems. He was the main IT professional on our team and had to be there when things went wrong to troubleshoot as well as set up computers and networks.

Job Duties & Technologies

For installing software, he was the IT person we used. We don’t really have people that know that kind of stuff. He was the main person in building the network for computers and troubleshooting. If they would crash he would tell us what to do. He also was responsible for hooking up the many different printers as well as setting up laptops and desktops

Technical Performance & Ability

Some people come for a month or so and would not work out, but based on what he can do, he was able to stay longer. He was really good and he stayed for over a year. He was always able to do what we asked him to do. He was always reliable.

Non-Technical Skills

He was good with communicating with the team. He was able to relate with all coworkers, even those who know nothing about it he could communicate what was going on and what was needed. I am not technical but I always understood what he wanted to get done.

Strengths & Areas for Improvement

It is hard to think of one. He was here for 13 months and I am not technical so I am not sure where he lacked because to me he knew everything we asked him to do.

Attendance & Reliability

He worked about 8 hours a day. He was flexible though it depended on the level of problems, sometimes it be 10 hours. Always, always on time and never called out once. Most of the time he was very early even.

Rehire Eligibility

Absolutely would love to rehire him but we did not have enough work to keep him busy because he had helped us so much.

Completed by: Matthew Heilmann on 08/16/2012

Project Description

Our team was the team that took care of desktop rollout and data migrations. We also did some patching project work as well.

Cultural Environment

There were I believe 13 on the team with Tosin. AS far as the IT department there were about 50 employees. There were times when we needed to work after hours to ensure that projects were complete on time.

Job Duties & Technologies

He was involved in some break fixing and resolving tickets, as well as rolling out desktops and laptops setups in the office.

Technical Performance & Ability

He was absolutely one of the best on the team and one of the most reliable. He never had any problem staying late or working long hours.

Non-Technical Skills

He interacted quite well and was a good team player. He never had any problems with other people on the team.

Strengths & Areas for Improvement

He could improve his communication a little bit. By that I mean emails and updating call logs in the systems he needed to be a little more thorough.

Attendance & Reliability

Weekly he worked about 37.5 hours but then he was involved a lot of project work so he worked a lot more than that on weekends and nights. He completes the projects he is working on regardless of the hours.

Rehire Eligibility

I definitely would want to rehire him. He was one of the most reliable people on the team. He would always follow through on projects

Additional Comments

He was very reliable and an asset to the team
