Personal STatement
----------------------------
I am a hard-working and highly motivated student interested in various fields of computing who can work under pressure and time constraints. Being a perfectionist, I tend to take all jobs seriously. The skills I gained in HND have been put to practical use when I worked part time for a PC assembling Unit and a Cyber Café where I was responsible for various tasks such as maintaining the network, and general hardware/software support. My interest in programming resulted in self-learning C/C++, VB, ASP, SQL and HTML, which were later strengthened through academic courses. The role of a team leader in my final year HND project (Development of chess game with primitive AI) made me learn the importance of proper project management. I passed my HND with a Distinction (87.5%) which enabled me to get direct entry into BSc Computer Studies 2nd year where I got straight ‘A’ in all my first Semester modules.
My aim is to work for a company in which I can be part of an efficient, motivated and professional team that takes pride in positively contributing to the company. I am proficient in the use of technology and can demonstrate strong problem solving and team working skills. I feel confident that my personal skills and my interest to learn will allow me to become a valued member of any organisation.
