Today we had two assignments assigned to us at Employment Services. First was to answer 3 Behavioral interview questions using the Star method and a Company Research Assignment on Mechanics Bank. Mechanics Bank will be doing the mock interview for us at CTP on the 22nd. Also, we practiced the additional behavioral questions with different …

Today we learned what a DevOps operator does. Then we continued working on the mBot robotics project. There is still a lot more I want to explore with this project.

Today Alex discussed briefly what Operations, Development and DevOps are. DevOps is an interesting field where one is a jack of all trades in both hardware and software with generalized skill set. A sort of fixer that bridges the gap between hardware and software needs to create IT solutions. Next, I helped out my CTT …

Watched a TED talk about the Customer Service bar being extremely low. Learned about the two radio stations WIFM/ WIFO (what’s in it for me/ others). Working with the PRO students is always interesting, we did a group exercise where we role-played to be workers that had to tell their clients NO! (Link to TED …

The objective is to deny the customer request and offering alternatives and not just turning them …

Today I made the mBot do a dance and a light show! I also learned how to test batteries using a voltage checker. As a class we created a theoretical program for a number guessing game.

Today everybody got a taste of programming using pseudo code. Alex gave a hypothetical example of code to run in a vending machine. It was a fun practice figuring out the logic by looking and simulating how a vending machine should be programmed to respond. Our project for the week is working with the mBot …

We also did a mock interview using the same questions with two partners shifting roles as an interviewer and interviewee. I had Greg and Rolanda as my partners and we all had productive sessions. The practice helps a lot in …
