Which one to choose?

I don't normally do this, but in your case I'll make an exception

Stop being so f***** pedantic.

Most of alreadypacked's posts are fine.

There are few people around who are dyslexic and even more people around who have never been taught spelling and English Grammar thanks to the teaching methods used in primary schools the 70s and 80s.

By the time someone is at university it's too late as they should have been taught this stuff in primary school.

Only because I put them in Word to spell check them, sometime I don't bother.

One of my mate's does that.

When she got a new computer the first thing she did was phone me up in distress because she hadn't sourced a copy of Word.

However you can get browser spell checkers. I have one at the moment. However I've not seen one that checks your grammar as well.

I will let the people at the assessment centre know they were wasting their time; you could diagnose people by the use of one word.

I have mentioned it on the forum before. I left school at 14 unable to read or write.

Too much detail, I think you're over-egging the pudding. It doesn't really matter what I believe and tbh you're not going to change my opinion.

Yes, I am sure you have lots of opinions that will never change

That completes our dinosaur museum tour for today.

Move along, nothing new to see here.

Hi,

Having a confusing question I would like to ask for advice. I have been offered places on two different courses. These are (imho) similar in what they aim to achieve though fairly different in their content. What I want to ask is what is the difference between the jobs/positions I can expect regarding my choice.

(Any advice is welcome)

The courses:

Computer Systems and Networking BSc. (Hons)


IT with Networking BSc. (Hons)


Thank you for your help.

You dont say if you have been working previously, are changing jobs, looking for a way back into work after redundancy or something else.

Generally speaking, unless you plan on doing a higher degree afterwards, it makes no difference. The only time a degree subject will make a difference is if you have a 2.1 or better from a high profile university. This will help you get into Banking/Finance ( on the permie side atleast ).

Employers look for something vaguely relevant to the job they want you to do and some experience of doing it or something similar.

At entry level, it is more important to exhibit some semblance of intelligence, be able to string a coherant sentance together and be able to folllow basic instructions without cocking them up.

If you are looking for a career change, who knows. Right now the market is as crap in IT as it is everywhere else. In three years time who knows what will be relevent or not.
