CHRIS: I went to college for English and branched into technology shortly thereafter. I actually like to spend as little time as possible in front of a computer. I try to spend time with my baby and wife or workout when I am not taking care of business. I am working toward my Master's in Systems Management.
CHRIS: ReviewNet offers me the chance to expand my writing experience. I enjoy thinking up scenarios for questions as it puts me mentally in that scenario and makes me decide what is the best course of action. Writing these tests and coursework really helps me stay abreast of the changes in technology.
CHRIS: My biggest professional accomplishment is probably the fact that I have had the opportunity to hold so many different positions in such a short period of time. I have been a Director of Marketing, a Helpdesk Manager, a programmer, and all within the 5 years that I have been in the field. It is this range of positions that gives me the perspective to write test taking all aspects into consideration.
CHRIS: I decided to get into the IT field when my father, a VP at CSC, convinced me that there was a communication breakdown in the field and someone with my background would have success. I also enjoy the money that comes with these jobs.
CHRIS: I designed my test to include a couple of different answers that could be correct. One more than the other. This way, an interviewer will know if this person has problem solving skills. What I mean is that although a person might not be an expert in all disciplines, their intellect will allow them to alleviate some answers and figure through a scenario. I also included some answers that were way out in left field so that an interviewer will know that their potential employee is full of *@!%, if you know what I mean.
