Some of our summer workers

Ellen has had to deal with land surveying procedures

Ellen Thonfors is in the second year of the Land Surveying program, legal specialization, at Uppsala University. She worked as administrative surveyor at Lantmäteriet , Kalmar , summer 2023.

What was the best thing about your summer job?

- We had a great atmosphere and very good cohesion. I have felt welcome and been able to ask questions, I think you develop by asking questions. I've learned a lot.

– The variety of tasks – one day meetings in a shirt and suit trousers, the other day I've had to cast pipes in full construction worker clothing.

What have you had to do ?

– I have had to manage my own affairs together with supervisors and with support from the other summer jobs. It's a bit of "tough love", but sometimes it's good to just throw yourself out. I've also had to be out casting pipes, finding boundary markings, measuring – I've had to do everything.

Max made sure that Swepos worked

Max Fahlgren Brodin is in his fourth year of the civil engineering program in land surveying technology, specialization in technical land surveying, at the University of Gävle. He worked as an operations engineer at Swepos, Lantmäteriet 's head office in Gävle, in the summer of 2023.

What was the best part of your summer job?

– That's exactly what I'm studying, the job was a perfect fit in the glove. Having done it before, it was comfortable – I know this and feel appreciated. It's a cool place, a bit like the CIA. And then there is always AC, which can be nice in the summer.

What have you had to do?

– Swepos is a network of reference stations that collects satellite data and makes it possible to determine position. It is used, among other things, in construction projects and in agriculture. We make sure that the network works and comes into operation.

– This was the third summer I worked at Swepos. Sometimes we have gone on service trips to a broken station, but usually we contact electrical companies that install and we check that it works in the system. There are many different alarms, some things are quick to fix, others are more complicated. We are constantly looking online during our "office hours" 6:30 a.m.–5 p.m. And after 17, there is always someone on standby, all year round.
