    0Who got it?

    October 15, 2007 in IT Rockstar by admin

    I didn’t want a job, I wanted an adventure. 920 provided me with one alright. I applied for a position online and was on the phone with an agent within the hour. I came down from Napier to Wellington for an interview and had the job of my dreams the very next day. Signed sealed and delivered, off to Sport and Recreation NZ in the role of IS Advisor. 920 came through for me and I felt well looked after.SPARC is a wonderful place to work. The team is great, the atmosphere relaxed and the whole environment feels young, dynamic and a little crazy at times, right up my alley!Eion read more »
