After graduating from Brunel University with a degree in Information Systems, I set about starting my career in IT. I searched through various companies until I found an advert for SFW. I researched the company’s website and was interested to learn that they encouraged employees to gain further qualifications through Microsoft exams. I was impressed by what I had read so decided to apply.
Within a week the HR Manager called to inform me that the Directors had looked at my CV and wanted to interview me. I was interviewed by one of the Consultants, Gavin. I had read that SFW had a casual attitude towards its everyday dress code but when Gavin walked in wearing jeans and a jumper, I felt over-dressed! The interview was pretty relaxed and Gavin asked me about my experiences at university.
A couple of days later, the HR Manager phoned me to ask me for a second interview, this time with Steve, one of the Directors. Once again, the interview was fairly relaxed and Steve asked me about my degree and what my future aspirations were. I received a phone call from Steve soon afterwards, inviting me to join SFW. The job promised me the opportunity to work with the latest technology and gain a much wider range of experience, so I decided to accept.
