Gerry Soh

Summary

My name is Gerry Soh & I am 23 Years Old. After completing my N-Levels, I progressed to ITE & studied Nitec in Social Media & Web Development where I learnt to develop website using Adobe Dreamweaver and some design works with Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop and others. As I progressed on to Higher Nitec in IT Applications Development, I learnt more in-depth skills of programming such as Mobile Application Coding with Xcode Swift 4 and many more. Afterwards, I did my 2 Years of National Service with The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) in Combat Engineering and decided to continue my studies with NYP Work-Study Leading to Diploma in Info COMM & Digital Media (IT Network & System Administration) to pursue my passion in IT.


Based on my past experience as a web developer in Hawko Trading. I have had the opportunity to learn new skills and knowledge about the working world and how they function. The main thing which I found was the most useful for me as a web developer was the usage of cPanel. cPanel is a software that helps to manage the database of websites and how it is being launch etc. I also learn how to create domains within the database of cPanel. Other then that for the rest I just applied what I have learnt in my school. I would definitely want to pursue web designing and developing as a career. I have been granted a referral letter and a position there for my good performance. Did not work for them due to national service.
