i studied visual basic in computing fora year and then dropped the subject, im plannin to teach myself java over the break, check out thenewboston on YT and follow the tutorials and youll become prettttty decent by watching him, thats my plan
I know some programming/coding, I studied a whole unit on object orientated programming and games development/web development at sixth form, so I know how to moderately program in JavaScript in Dreamweaver, C++ and C# on Visual studio. Same as @Dkusht I'm planning to get ahead start and start teaching myself how to program in Java this summer using codeacademy and maybe YouTube.

So yeah I'll be more than happy to help 😁😄

Although I'm planning to stay at Home, I was previously looking into it but tbh you're better off finding somewhere in the surrounding areas of London (Kent, Berkshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex) and commute than in London itself because it's ultimately cheaper unless you're willing to flat share with random people.


Yh im guessing that's the best idea. Thanks I'll have a look into those areas.

Anyone know if Accenture cover travel expenses or is it just a subsidised railcard?

For the title I put "Miss" basically how your teacher is addressed Mr, Ms etc. at least that's what I thought it meant...

Then Referee I just put my referee's full name.

I put my personal reference i.e my teacher in the employer section again as I was so confused on how to fill it out as I've been in education for the last 36 months and never been employed.

Tbh I think I filled some of the form wrong, even for the bank details, I put my local banks address instead of my address! I tried sending an enquiry to them but nobody responded on time so just went with my instinct.

I found out it was the correct thing to do after all, I went into panic mode for nothing :lol:
How many references did you all supply? I only put one reference (I basically put the same one for Personal reference and academic reference (Employer section)), slightly getting worried that this won't be sufficient.
