_
Analyst/Programmer / Marketing Systems Group, Fort Washington, PA Apr
1998 - Jan 2001
. Wrote computer programs to extend and update a national database
including phone numbers, geographic specifiers, and demographic data.
Created and tested 50 new programs to supplement the 175 programs already
making up the database update procedure. These new programs incorporated
new approaches for insuring the accuracy of the final data products.
Revised significantly 45 of the already existing programs to increase
automation of the process, with check files created to document any
changes formerly done manually, and to improve the accuracy of the
results and the running efficiency. Created detailed documentation of
the extensive procedures involved in the national database update
process.
. Wrote utility programs, which streamlined tasks involving sorting,
performing frequencies, as well as merging and appending data files. Also
developed a moderately large program for performing cleaning and
switching of area codes that have undergone splits making use of lookup
tables.
. Worked as a member of a two-person team to design and manage a national
database of business data on a SQL Server using Microsoft SQL Server
2000. The project involved creating an application in Visual Basic to
select a universe of records and to create random samples from each
selected universe from the business database.
. Created a Visual Basic application for our production team to determine
the status of telephone exchanges and zip codes in seven separate data
sources for quarterly updates of the national database.
. Developed three Visual Basic applications to allow account managers to
easily access and query information from the national database, relating
telephone exchange, zip code, county and demographic information. This
involved first converting final data files from the national database
update process to Microsoft Access.
