    Hi Guys,

    Wow, things happen fast. Two weeks ago I was contacted via Linked In from an Agent saying about a new role. I said I was OK thank you, but he said I thought I was a good fit, could I take a look at the Job spec. I said I would and let him know.

    Had a read and it seemed pretty good. Went back and said Yes I am interested. Had 1 Interview last week which was about 1.5 Hours, 30 Mins of which was a test. Had a 25 Minute (Yup you read that right) interview on Wednesday. The next stage was meant to be a meeting with a couple of Senior Managers to see if I fitted in with the company's ethos, but yesterday the agent contacted me, said they want to skip that bit and have offered me the job.

    I will be the sole IT person in the Shoreditch office,
    They are implementing SCCM in the next few weeks,
    Really big firm with lots of prospects.

    Actually amazed and really cant wait to start!
