78 Machine Operator Questions And Answers

62⟩ Explain the types of routine maintenance you’ve regularly performed on CNC machines?

Every shop has routine maintenance that has to get done. Lubrication, coolant maintenance, and other tasks. You need to know if this applicant will help get that work done. Don’t be afraid to drill down deeper and ask them about more sophisticated maintenance they may have been involved with. You can even ask whether they were involved the last time a tech was brought in to fix a machine and get the story to help understand how well they followed what the tech did.

In capacity of warehouse assistant while working with ABC Company, it so happened that the company was in loss and was sold. The new administration changed everything, all rules and policy.

64⟩ Tell us a stressful work situation you came across while working a machine operator?

When I joined RJP industries back in 2009 I found out that the previous employee had not maintained the inventory and I was somehow held responsible for it since I did not report the fact on time. It was quite stressful and kind of unfair since I had fulfilled my duty, only did not report the discrepancies in previous records. I learnt from this incident to always communicate every major or minor issue to the management at once.

Yes, and I have learned to prioritize what you can, and if you can't make a deadline, notify others and don't panic about it, because if its going to be late, its going to be late. Mistakes can happen that can cost much more than the deadline when you are rushing to finish.

When I was responsible for ensuring accurate machine settings at the embroidery machine department, the supervisor called me and asked me to adjust the settings in a manner that both sides of the motive appear neat and are useable.
