It's the old chicken & egg - no experience without a job, no job without experience. At the moment I just list it on my CV and mention it in interviews if I think it's at all relevant to the role...

Damn straight. When I left the room I was brain dead

On reflection I didnt think the exam was too hard. It could have been easier as we didnt have any question of Product configuration, description or any of the other copy and paste easy stuff.

If I had to take it again there would be no way that I would be able to do it.
