I've had two jobs, the previous one I had through college(working in a takeaway) and now I am a mortgage adviser.

Going back to university to do software engineering but I have loved both of my jobs but mostly to do with the people- the jobs are both boring.

Nerd moment here, but :five: about the course!

I do Computer Science, but did my year in industry in Software Engineering :smile:

About to have my last shift this evening of my second paid job. I also do weekly volunteering at my uni's archives.

Ay high five.

I did A-level IT which had a huge chunk of software development in. I enjoyed it and carried on after finishing college using code blocks, codeacademy and youtube videos etc to expand my knowledge as a hobby whilst also studying for CeMap exams for my job. So I have decided to give it a go at university as working in finance is definitely not for me!

2 jobs since graduation 2 years ago because having many short term jobs (job-hopping) doesn't look good on a CV.
