So what does an IT Support Specialist do? Think of yourself as someone who provides assistance and technical support to the business and to team members who are experiencing technical, hardware, or software issues. You are the go-to person for first level technical support for internal customers – to provide resolutions to technical concerns which will result in minimal recurring issues.
As you tackle your new tasks for the day, you know that it will lead to one thing: you will ensure quality service in accordance with departmental standards and guidelines, and provide positive customer service orientation resulting in high customer satisfaction ratings.
As an IT Support Specialist, you will:
Respond to telephone calls and email messages from users requesting assistance, log and keep records of customer/employee queries, interpret problems, and analyze possible causes of hardware and software failures.
Identify computer hardware, software, and telecommunications malfunctions and take appropriate action to resolve these issues while ensuring data and system integrity.
Conduct tests, configure, install, modify, maintain, and repair computer hardware, operating systems, applications, software patches, and updates as necessary.
Assist in conducting user application testing during program implementation, migration, and system maintenance.
Perform desktop system maintenance/upgrades including all desktop OS patches, and create/maintain documentation of instructional procedures (i.e. hardware/software installation) and/or knowledge-based troubleshooting techniques.
Maintain an inventory of computer hardware assets, peripherals, and software licenses owned by the company and perform scheduled preventive maintenance of computer systems.
