Not a bad salary for a junior tech position at all.

"Hours of Work

Whilst the normal working day is Monday to Friday, 8.30am - 5.30pm, there is a need

to be flexible about hours in order to get the job done. Payment is not made in

respect of overtime; however, the Bursar may agree to time off in lieu for weekend or

out of hours work."

 

Past experience tells me to not bother.

[webman]

[mrforgetful]

Must have a degree! lmao

[mortstar]

Must have a degree! lmao

 

Agreed - experience and actually technical knowledge is so much more valuable.

 

In a recent recruitment exercise an applicant with Post-Grad degree in Computing and an MCSE could hardly complete a single task on the practical test given to all applicants.

[sidewinder]

Must have a degree! lmao

 

Stupid, yes, but I would hope if someone with enough experiance submitted a CV, it wouldnt just be binned because they didnt have a degree.

That is of course, using the dangerous assumption that common sense would be used

Not a bad salary for a junior tech position at all.

 

I guess they're allowing about 5K for London living.

[plock]

I could travel to London - but no degree sadly!

 

Yet I could do the jobs hands down! I do feel degrees are somewhat over rated!

[mrforgetful]

To be fair I would still apply if there was just that I was missing. Nothing to lose.

[georgebush]

About the only usefull thing my degree taught me about my job is that degrees are irrelevant, none of the specialist stuff I learned has been of any use to me whatsoever.

[mrforgetful]

A lot of people aren't so much fussed about the information in a degree, just that you can learn to that standard.

[Grommit]

When will the BSF kick in ?
