It's one of the few things I find intrinsically enjoyable, and I do not tolerate boredom well. I'm particularly interested in researching the formations of stereotypes and intergroup interactions. Plus that particular field has some flexibility; I'll be able to do both research and counseling work if I choose to do so.

If you are into "psychology" finding this site must be like hitting the mother lode.

Currently an intern at a large communications multi-national as part of my masters degree in software engineering. I do a lot of Java programming and shell scripting and I'm expected to have good knowledge of Unix operating systems such as Solaris. I work on a product which is used to manage mobile networks so I'm expected to learn all about cellular networks. I finish my masters at Christmas and I expect to be given the job permanently.

I've also worked in a smaller IT company before that where I was doing a mixture of coding and electronics, such as working with microcontrollers, and also some app development. I was coding using a mixture of Java, C and Objective-C.

I've also worked in my uncle's hardware store for years since I was 15 and that had it's good times and it's bad times. I never really liked the job that much, but it paid my way through college and put money in my wallet for going out and getting wasted.

Hey, very cool. That sort of stuff fascinates me. What side of the field would you rather take on, the research or the counseling?

I study a joint degree of English Lit and Film Studies. I also work in a supermarket on the tills and stacking shelves. I hope to go into the film industry in some respect once I graduate.
