Success requires the ability to support a given account base, retain contract customers, complete PMs on time, and perform administrative duties accurately and timely. Level 2 CSEs must utilize their training to effectively diagnose and troubleshoot issues they encounter in the field. Effective and efficient troubleshooting is imperative in this role.
