My two weeks with the BBC

I got to do a two-week work placement at BBC Scotland, and it was amazing! The whole experience was very informative and rewarding. I learned how the technologies I have been learning are powering one of the biggest websites of the world, and I was also specially happy to put some of the theoretical knowledge I gained around testing, into good practice to see how it applies in the real world. I learned a lot and got to participate in various tasks, scrum ceremonies and shadow some amazing team members. The main advantage though is that - coming out of the two weeks - I felt confident and empowered to pursue my dream of becoming a software tester. I also know now that BBC is my dream employer, and one day I will work there :)
