Hello,

I was offered a job at a casino working as a slot machine technician.

They said they do most hardware replacements and repairs, do electrical diagnostics, and even replace some capacitors or other basic electrical components; the latter maybe being mainly in the power supply area.

I worked in IT, hardware and software support, help desk and IT shop, diagnosing and replacing parts. Though, the corporate process was always buy new and swap the faulty part out with very minimal diagnosis on the electrical level.

I've left a VM with the supervisors office at the casino asking the same question. They know my limited experience in the electrical field, but also said I'll need to quickly pick up the technical aspects during the 90 day training probation on my own or I won't be brought on as permanent.

Any guidance or advice is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.
