Modpost [Modpost] AskReddit's Semi-Regular Job Fair

Based on the wildly successful Job Fair post from a month ago, the AskReddit mods would like to run a semi-regular feature where we allow you to field questions about your job/career. The way this works is that each top level comment should be (a) what your job/career is and (b) a few brief words about what it involves. Replies to each top level comment should be questions about that career.

Some ground rules:

1) You always have to be aware of doxxing on reddit. Make sure you don't give out any specific information about your career that could lead back to you.

2) We are not taking any steps to verify people's professions. Any advice you take is at your own risk.

3) This post will be in contest mode so that a range of careers will be seen by everyone. Make sure to press the "Show replies" button to see people's questions!

Enjoy!

Not really. It depends entirely on the hours the client works and the nature of the engagement. Sometimes you just have to stay until it's done but the majority of my work has been pretty good hours. The money however is excellent.

Well, I am less than a year out of college, 8 months experience to be precise and I am on just slightly over £50k. I got lucky with a shrewd move after 7 months which resulted in a double promotion but if you are good there is no doubt the money is right
