Systems Developer Review

My role as a systems developer within the AA is to help and develop systems to help my fellow team. I have been tasks such as allowing my manager to flag up any errors within certain databases which will then be sent to him and the team to resolve the problem.

Before I started I had little to no knowledge in any programming languages of, C#, HTML, CSS, SQL and more but now I'm flourishing and very proud of how far I've come with my knowledge of C# and other skills which have drastically improved throughout my time here at the AA.

To be honest I absolutely love my job, role and everyone I've met so far. The programme is good everything is going smoothly, I'm ahead of my training work and I aim to stay on top of it. I find myself enjoying coding that much that I sometimes miss my breaks and I notice the day goes so fast before I know it I'm already leaving work but sometimes I stay a little longer to finish something.

It's very organised, I'm sent emails and texts throughout with dates and checks, I also have constant communication with my coach who makes sure I understand everything and that I'm heading in the right direction which so far everything is going well and everything is organised smoothly.

Overall I get support when I require it, if I'm stuck on something or need to fully understand a certain subject area then I am given the time and support for me to go and do that, It's less stressful knowing that I have support there if required.

Whenever I'm stuck on something in class I can simply put my hand up and ask for what I'm stuck on, and every time I've understood it after they've sat with me and talked me through it. I also have my training providers emails so that I have that communication to help too.

I've definitely noticed an improvement on my job role through the things I've learnt throughout my training days at my training provider, I've went over previous stuff I've done and realised some major simple changes I could make to benefit the code itself which is more reliable and less buggy.

I think I remember there being some talk about it but I can't remember so I don't know, I'm sure there are. I just don't know about them as of right now, but I'd be interested to find out what they are so I could look them up.

Yes

I mean I already have recommended the AA as a career option to a bunch of my friends because of the environment and the benefits. I really do enjoy my work here so why shouldn't others, a lot of my friends are in dead end jobs and they want a change so I tell them about the AA.

Be dedicated and professional. Know that you're going to be trained so make sure you're ready to learn and better yourself and your career knowing that you can't be lazy but actually effective working. If you're applying to the AA make sure you make yourself presentable professional and your CV is in order.
