Max,
Seriously though, with all due respect I think your question's a wee bit naughty - I have no desire to go anywhere near a career in IT - never did have, never will have. However, I presume in your own case you did make a conscious decision to go down this route? (Albeit for all I know it was not your first choice). So a bit of a non sequiter IMHO.
Hehe
I think you have neatly side-stepped the 'spirit' of my question but what the hell
Au contraire! IT was my first choice of career. Indeed both my Mum and Dad met whilst working at IBM!
But what is choice when there are few options. Being a late developer, it wasn't until after a few years racing around London on motorbikes delivering letters that I had to opportunity to 'settle down'. If I appreciated my ability earlier I would have made an attempt to join the RAF, but I just simply assumed it was not feasible. Only now do I have the resources to persue what I previously considered out of reach. Technically then IT is my first choice, given what I saw as my options at the time
Dave,
OK mate. I think I read it on the form they send you when you book your appointment but I can't be sure as I no longer have that paperwork.
Cheers chaps,
Kef.
