I have just spoken to Reed who have a good job lined up for me in London @ the Docklands.

She said I need to pop down to there place and speak to them / do a little test, takes about 1hr 30mins

Anyone know anymore about this? Im crap at tests!!

The tests are shite, they dont account for shortcuts etc, and half of the stuff if your in I.T you will never use, its more for secutaries etc.

Your joking!

This is what you done at Reed?
Wasn't there a maths test or anything?

Oh do they mark the test and give you the results whilst your there?
