Achievement

I have had to jump feet first into this project as it is a critical time where lots of restore,upgrades and regression testing is taking place . I have practically had to learn on the job especially as there is no detailed documentation available regarding functionality and how each client has customised the software to cater to their needs .My vast experience in my previous roles helped me enormously here in handling issues deftly, liaising with the development team both in house and offshore and in a timely manner .

Restoring and upgrading databases is something I have done for the first time here and have thoroughly enjoyed doing it.
