Discuss As the employer what questions would you ask service/breakdown engineer at interview? in the Find Local Gas Engineers - Post a Job area at Plumbers Forums
I'd be asking what boilers and type of systems you have experience working on. I'd be looking for a good knowledge of basic fault finding as well as how to go about logically solving intermittent faults. I'd want to know you knew basic electrical checks so you didn't kill yourself! Mostly I want to know I could get along with you in the future

if its social housing they will only be interested in how many boilers you can service in a day

It is part of a social housing contract. I will be expected to carry out maintenance and breakdown repairs as well as annual servicing. I have no problem changing parts and I can diagnose some faults but it can sometimes take me a while to diagnose faults.
What hour do you do and on average how many boiler service do you get done in a day. What happen if you are sent to a break down but you don't have the required part on the van? Do you inform the office that it needs to be booked back in for a repair or are you expected to go and get the part same day?Yep, I work social housing you need to stand your ground. I won't do anymore then I feel I can safely do it means giving work back to the office then so be it.
Surely you cant be expected to give each appliance a strip down and clean?If its social housing I'd make it very clear from the outset what you are and what you aren't prepared to do.
Some me places will give you 10+ properties a day to do and most are multiple appliance jobs.
