It's been a busy period on the BTC

Graduate Program: Technology

I think it's now time for me to give you an insight into the roles that might be available should you join the BTC. In order to do this I will run through my last two which have been over the past month.

Firstly I spent two weeks working for a client of ours as they were rolling out a SaaS application. My role was as a test manager. I was involved with everything from writing test scripts to co-ordinating the user acceptance testing with the client. I was only on the role for 2 weeks but got good insight to the software and I can honestly say that with the freedom of discovery testing there is no better way to learn. SaaS is getting lots of interest here at Capgemini, we see it as a trend that is growing more and more as companies are looking to have solutions that are delivered quickly and at a low cost. The BTC involvement in this area is large as the client wants innovative software, and also innovative thinkers working on the project. The BTC are renowned for their ability to think outside of the box and it is this that the client buys into. All in all a great result for any graduate that wants experience to what can potentially be 'the next big thing'.

I then had a role in our ASE (Accelerated Solutions Environment). Click here to read more about it as it is a key unique selling point for Capgemini and definitely worth a read. I was part of the crew for a three day event, which meant that I was in charge of ensuring all inputs were created and ready, and also outputs were captured. The event was themed in the style of the A-Team and it was lots of fun being able to blast the A-Team theme tune out of the speakers in the environment!

That’s just a quick overview of two of the roles I have been on, feel free to ask questions about the roles and I will do my best to answer them.
