What do you work as?

[^G0trex]

If you have no idea what the A+ or MCDST is, then unfortuantly your not going to get anywhere in the IT industry. Best look fo a job in another sector Tai.....

Why would I know what it was unless I'd already looked into it myself? We certaintly never covered it at A level...

Yeah i forgot my password and the e-mail account its registered with has been deleted so no chance of finding out what it is.

So would learning A+ and N+ be a bonus or is it not worth learning both sides?

A+ is a waste of time, as there is no money to be made in hardware anymore. But N+ is a good starting point to get into IT, as you learn the basics of DHCP/DNS/TCP/IP and network management.

Hate to say it but i've lived in Bournemouth for the last 5 years (At uni there) and the people that go out there are some of the biggest penises i've ever met. A lot of posh-up-themselves types.

Bar that though it is a good night out. :P

Ontopic: Still at Uni at them moment. Currently doing my disertation, would like to get into web design afterwards if i can.

Awhhh dear, im sure i'll cope though. You at BU or AUCB? Dyou live in winton? What year of uni are you in?

By mess you mean...a can of sprite?

 

[Skyline]

Should see the state of my desk lol.

I have hard drives, memory, memory sticks, dongles, mobile phones, laptops scattered all over it. Along with numerous pieces of paper!

 

[elohelMeight]

Im bored and being nosey, so ill get this thread started.

I work as a Business Administrator, Training for Level 2 Business Admin NVQ

I also teach microsoft office to learners for a course this company also does.

I went from sponging off the goverment (job seekers) to this fine little job £5.80 ph, so yeh it proves even if your at your lowest in life, you can sort it out.:thumbup2:

I done my Business Administration Lvl.3 NVQ in 6months through my last company (Along with customer service Lvl.2).. they are actually pointless tbh. Can understand why people mock NVQ as a 'Not very qualified'.

I work 4 days a week labouring and work 3:30am - 7:30am doing picking & packing. The work situation in this country is a joke tbh, sent C.V etc off to 20-30 companies last week for a variety of jobs... not 1 reply. I also heard the other day that the public services (Police etc) won't recruit anybody under the age of 21 due to 'lack of life skills'... lol?

@kyndigs: That is a mess? oO.

They won't recruit Police Officers under a certain age no, but you can still get a job within the Police doing other stuff.

I applied for 9 jobs today alone. Doubt I'll even get a single interview out of any of them.

 

[elohelMeight]

Yep, it's ****.

My labouring is cash in hand... and the night work was just lucky as my cousins cousin needed someone xD.

Need a contracted day job tbh.

 

[kyndigs]

You need to stand out, dont just send your typical job application be inventive, they expect you to lie.

Do you wanna see my round 1 application form for Microsoft?

I doooo.

I got to 3rd round for IBM then got shot down to a bunch of Physics students from Imperial College who asked if they would get programming support because they couldn't do it, I mean WTF lol.

 

[kyndigs]

IBM is all about academia, hence they got pwned in the 80s when the real innovation came along!
