I test software for a marketing automation company.
Many development/programming skills
The company is fantastic to work for.
Some elements of the degree feel outdated, or not realistic for a real enterprise environment.
Online resources are often very limited. Some programmes are better at providing extra info than others.
So far, much of the programming taught on the course is not applicable to a large code base developed by experienced professionals. Further into the course, this is expected to change, however.
Sports (and non-sports) tournaments, regular football events, hackathons, various Slack channels for specific interests (gaming for example).
Yes
Very supportive environment. Dedicated teams for providing learning opportunities to employees
Some of the people who interview you are likely to be working with you in future, so make sure you act like someone who you would like to work with.
