UNSW Union (2001 - 2002)

From 2000 -2001 I worked at the University of New South Wales Union Student Development Department  as a clerical assistant performing filing, reception and administration duties for the union and assisting with managing and coordinating creative development courses.

In 2001 I became involved with UNSW Union IT department (some volunteer) assisting at JAVA@JAVA internet café and performing application development. The IT Department was contracted to IT-is-Magic who I worked with performing application development and networking. I also performed some external consulting for IT-is-Magic

Due to my involvement in IT my clerical position became more involved with the Administration, support and software development for the student computer labs which became managed by the Student Development Department which I was employed by. My IT related activities included application development, system administration, networking, SQL and Visual Basic development. Software applications include: print queue manager, automation software for computer labs and internet café.

From late 2001 to January/February 2002 I worked on the development of a membership database system for the membership services division. This project involved ASP, COM+, SQL, VB and JAVASCRIPT. The project was to develop a secure centralised member services database application drawing together a number of individual student databases. I was the only developer working on the project for a period as I took over from the external consultants who developed the framework.
