Working for the BBC

Well, it has been quite a roller coaster ride since I arrived in the UK last year. Changing countries can be daunting! So, After working for around seven months in hardcore product development (which I would say is quite rare for a Flash Developer...) I have taken a job with BBC as Technical Project Manager. One of the advantages would be I'll be moving to London now, and would be able to attend user group meetings. Have missed almost all of them this year.

The role involves less coding, and more of all round skills, also deep understanding of a complex system, so it should be a massive learning curve for me.
As a developer you are never sure as to when is the right time to take plunge to the next level and may be more difficult for Flash Developers.

Would love to get some advice and experiences from fellow developers...

  • Hey there...
    I got to your blog by googling "working for the BBC".
    The BBC is my "dream employer" and I was wondering whether you had tips and tricks about how to get a job there... ?!?!
    Well, I know that simply applying might be a good start, but... well... just in case, you have something, I'd be very greatful to know.

    Regards and good luck,
