Busy, busy, successful week

9th March

Well hopefully most of you will now know, I got offered the HP job following the assessment  day. The place is truly incredible, it’s a 1/4 of a mile round trip from my desk to the servers I’ll be working on!

The assessment day really showed me that, that is where I wanted to be. It was a lot like the first time I came on a University of Portsmouth open day, the first time I walked around Anglesea, I just knew that is where I wanted to be and with that same feeling in Bracknell on Friday I took the job the moment I was offered it.

So thankfully that is all sorted, short of sorting out a house/flat/other building the next academic year is looking good, planned even. Should be pretty awesome really and I’m really looking forward to it.

With my mind now settled, knowing that next year is no longer in the air, I can really, properly concentrate on Semester 2. Although thinking about it the last semester wasn’t so bad and I finally got my final mark a couple of days ago. I averaged 71.6%, a first :)

So, there we go, a successful week, bring on Semester 2!

Thank you for all your prayers over the last few weeks,

God bless,

Dan

Hi

I have been invited to a HP assessment day for their 2009 graduate programme. Can you tell me what to expect, what i should do to prepare and any do’/dont’s in order to be successful?

Hi JD,

First off, what position is it for? I’m a technical intern so being sharp on programming and networking was needed. The assessment day is really an opportunity for HP and specifically the department to see if you’ll fit in etc, so be yourself.

Also, dress smart as it is fairly formal, so suit ideally.

As you’ve already got through the telephone interviews I shouldn’t worry too much about qualifications etc as that will have already been evaluated so it really is seeing if you would fit in really.
