Dear Hiring Manager,

I am excited to apply for the Support Technician position at MANTECH. With over 6 years of experience in IT support and a current TS/SCI with Polygraph, I am well-prepared to contribute to your team. My background includes troubleshooting hardware, software, and network issues, managing user accounts in Active Directory, and utilizing ITIL processes to ensure efficient incident resolution.

I thrive in fast-paced, 24/7 environments and am skilled at collaborating with cross-functional teams to restore services. I am particularly drawn to MANTECH's mission of supporting national security and am eager to bring my technical expertise and dedication to your organization.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can add value to MANTECH.

Sincerely, [Your Name]

Can you walk us through your experience with ITIL-based incident management?
In my previous role, I followed ITIL processes for incident management, categorizing, prioritizing, and resolving tickets using ServiceNow. I ensured timely updates and escalation when necessary, maintaining SLAs.
How would you handle a critical outage during a holiday shift?
I would remain calm, quickly triage the issue to determine impact, and follow established escalation procedures. I would communicate status updates to stakeholders and collaborate with Tier 3 if needed, while documenting actions in the ticket.
Describe a time you resolved a complex network issue remotely.
A user couldn't connect to a network drive. I checked their IP configuration, found a duplicate IP, and guided them to release/renew. When that failed, I remotely reset their network adapter and resolved the conflict, restoring access.
How do you prioritize multiple incidents with differing severities?
I prioritize based on business impact: critical issues affecting multiple users or systems first, then individual problems. I use ITIL prioritization and communicate with users about expected resolution times.
What steps do you take to troubleshoot a Windows 10 startup issue?
I start by asking the user about recent changes. Then I guide them through safe mode, check for system file corruption with SFC, run startup repair, and if necessary, use system restore or reimage.
