I finished studying BSc (HONS) Computer Science at Anglia Polytechnic University in Cambridge in 2007 and achieved a Class 2:1
I have been working as a junior web developer where I have been maintaining and updating web sites on a daily basis. This involved ensuring the site is fully functional and implementing any changes needed to fix errors using Visual Studio 2008, SQL Server 2005, IIS7, CodeSmith as well as creating advertising html eshots for clients and sending them out to a database of 90,000 job applicants.
During this time I have developed my knowledge of these programs and working with C#. This has also given me experience of working with and updating a live commercial site.
In my spare time I have been further developing my skills in asp.net C# & SQL through books and the internet. I have written a DVD ecommerce website, and a creative promotional and networking site which I would be willing to show at a later date.
I am interested in further self improvement and am willing to learn new skills through training, either in the work environment or in a formal course environment.
I am now looking for a job in a web development team to further my knowledge of this industry and improve my programming skills.
I was wondering if you had any positions that I would be suitable for or if you haven’t I would be grateful if you could keep my details and let me know if a position comes available. I have attached my CV to this email. I will welcome the opportunity to discuss any relevant post and my own background in more detail, and would be available for an interview at any time.
