Help Offered > Programmer looking for summer internship/ work experience

#69363 - keldon - Mon Jan 30, 2006 8:56 am

I am currently on my third year of a four year Computer Science MSci course in Queen Mary's University of London and am seeking a summer internship or work experience.

Being a member of the QMUL programming team and a skilled programmer, I believe myself to be a valuable asset. In the second year software engineering project I took the role of the main programmer, creating much of the main structure of the cluedo game - and creating the intelligent AI and working alongside our graphics programmer on much of the user interface and graphical features/effects. I am also a talented musician - demos on request.

I have a game small demo for the gameboy and am currently working on a more complex demo to show my skills. My current demo is a game and watch type game which recieved a 6th place in PDRoms 2.5 (Sabinov by Keldon Alleyne and David Kirkland).

Figuring out the level of complexity of a demo is the job seeker's job. People without demos may be considered depending on the company.

Again, presentation is the job seeker's job. If people have questions, they'll ask. (I don't think the offer hurts.)
