    I worked at the Bin section of their Sherwood workshop as a Boilermaker.

    Powertrans was my most memorable employer, the one with the most impact and impression of my Australian work experience.
    The good thingsThe work environment was very typical of most workplaces I experienced but there was something about the workshop, where I was assigned at Powertrans that stood out from most others. I think it had to do with the bosses, the supervisors, probably the administration. They left an indelible impression on me.
    The challengesThe job at Powertrans was the longest I ever stay in with an employer I think. The tasks I had to perform were challenging because they were at times not very direct and required new skills. I like work that seem challenging to me.
