How did you end up in Liberty IT?

"After my degree I took a break and then started looking around. Liberty IT had by far the best graduate programme, so they were my first port of call."

Why did you accept the offer?

"As I didn't drive then, a big plus was being in the city centre. It's easy to get the train from where I live. Another thing was the in-house training. If you need training here you just ask. If it's appropriate to your role you'll get it."

How did you settle in?

"On my first day I was brought out to lunch by my manager. That was a great help in meeting people and started me settling in socially. Work-wise the graduate programme really helped me to make a smooth transition from what I learned as a student, to what the industry expects from software professionals."

What are you working on now?

"So far I have been working with technologies such as C++, JSP, HTML, SQL under Unix and Windows environments."

What do you like best about working in Liberty IT?

"You mean apart from payday! Probably meeting new people and travelling. I spent a week in the US last year working with colleagues which was great."
