What do you look for when hiring an apartment maintenance tech?

What kind of person would you look for when hiring an on-site maintenance guy for an apartment complex?

Would you train someone with no experience?

I’ve got an interview for a maintenance worker position at an apartment complex. It’s going to be with 3 maintenance supervisors over a group of complexes and they’re going to ask about my handyman skills. It sounded like they wanted a guy skilled in HVAC, plumbing, I can’t do all that. I have a basic understanding of it and want to learn. But I can paint walls, change/fix appliances, drywall, pretty basic household maintenance.

This seems like a great job to get first hand experience while I’m getting through college and saving for investments.

What would you say I need to do to be better prepared for this interview?

What kinds of things should I familiarize myself with?
