How did you end up in Liberty IT?

"I picked up some LIT marketing brochures at the Queen's University careers fair. The brochures gave me confidence that LIT was a company where I could develop a strong career in IT."

Why did you accept the offer?

"The interviewers were excellent; they gave me great feedback on the types of projects I could expect to be involved with, including technology sets and team working environment. Also, LIT's focus on employee training and career progression opportunities made accepting an easy decision to make."

How did you settle in?

"Settling in couldn't have been much easier. My team members were great fun to work with, but at the same time, provided top class mentoring, which is important to accelerate career development at the early stages."

What are you working on now?

"I'm currently working on a strategic project for an Underwriting application, which involves adding Quoting and Pricing functionality to an existing system. My team and I have spent the last number of weeks in the requirements analysis, design, and estimation stages of the project, and now construction is underway which is estimated to last for the next 4 months."

What do you like best about working in Liberty IT?

"It has to be the support for career development, flexibility, and the work life balance. I will be on a career break in a few months to go travelling, returning in a year's time. It's reassuring to know I will be returning to Liberty IT."
