Job application test - HELP!

Yukon · 8 Nov 2006 at 21:04

Right guys needing some help here.

I have applied for an IT support analyst position with a local company and I have got through the first interview and I have a second one on Friday. They want me to present an example of my work. It should show technical ability, relate to the job and they will be assessing my presentation skills. I currently work in support/training of users etc. but I haven't really produced any system or program since I was at uni and looking back at them they're not very good either

So now I am struggling with ideas of what to do. Has anyone else had this kind of test in an interview situation? What did you do and more importantly did it get you the job?

I don't really have the time to do a project from scratch. I have 25 hours until the interview and I am working so I only have tonight.

I was thinking rather than focusing on one thing i could do a few slides on a few things. Eg. I would do a few on my honours project, a few on training courses I have ran, a few on web pages I have built and maybe one on my home setup showing my PC built from scratch.

Do you guys think this would work?
