Bank of East Asia (Contracted by IBM & Kelly Services)
Overview
It was my honour to join the IBM Global Business Services division as a contractor and participated in their large banking project. I was responsible for development, writing unit test cases, working with end users on-site, collaborating with the SIT and QA teams to complete end-to-end testing.I really appreciated all of my colleagues in IBM, especially my team lead who was extremely technical and hard-working, during my contract period since they taught me a lot of hard skills. Without them, I could hardly equip the soft skills that brought me further in my career.
