I was fortunate to know someone who was already working there. He introduced me to the company and from there I was offered an interview which I went.

I think that these days the companies care about knowledge and portfolio work more then anything else. as someone seeking employment you can have a degree and know very little about how to do your job. However having a qualification means that you have some guaranteed background experience.

Designing and implementing quiz’s and interactive components to work alongside textual content so better enable the reader to learn and retain information presented to them.

I worked in a laid back environment, the workforce there was very easy to get along with. I didn’t have any problems with anyone.

Sometimes it was unclear what was expected of us, the specification of certain ‘jobs’ would sometimes change at a moments notice and we would be expected to adapt with a reasonable amount of speed.

My friends were working there so they vouched for me, showed them some stuff, that I did but trust me my work was very basic but looked good.

Nope, just good portfolio which I did not have.

Amend past work, amending to updated info. Take 3 breaks, eat on the table when you were not supposed to. It was quiet laid back, less stressing than my previous job.

Days when you had nothing to do, you go to work and browse the internet and I got paid to do that. Amazing don’t you think.

When I had to work on HBOS, Directors did not f*ckin give us enough time.

Good learning experience.

Boring content to work on.

Great staff, clean toilets and directors supplied us with bread and just. Free food thank you ATL.
