About the role
This interview covers the design, commissioning and support of microwave transmission links. The panel is looking for accurate link engineering, confident use of field evidence and a disciplined approach to interference, availability, safety and changes on live routes.
How to prepare
- Revise link budgets, path clearance, fade margin, modulation, capacity and protection options.
- Prepare a fault case where alarms and measurements led you to a specific microwave problem.
- Review the checks used during alignment, acceptance and service handover.
- Think through interference investigation and the evidence needed before changing a channel.
- Practise explaining how you protect traffic and field teams during work on a live route.
Common mistakes
- Reciting a link budget without explaining the assumptions behind the margin.
- Blaming interference before ruling out alignment, hardware and configuration faults.
- Ignoring traffic protection, access controls or work-at-height coordination.
