I. Letter of Introduction [Abstract]
Abstract
Software Engineer is the career chose by me since I am 14 years old. I want to be a
Software Engineer because I love programming and developing software. It
requires thinking skills as programming problems have to be solved in creative
ways and I love to think and solve problems.
Recently, I came across an article in the internet reporting that Software
Engineer rank in the first place in job rank in USA. The article also states that the
job is the least stressful job, with high payment and the most ease working
environment.
I am actually inspired by Bill Gates and the late Steve Jobs as both of them
are very creative in software programming and businesses. They start to involve in
computer business since 15 years old and they managed to change IT industry in
US. Nevertheless, comparing to IT business in Malaysia, it’s not evolving at all.
So, hopefully someday I can change the fate of IT industry in Malaysia.
Besides that, I like to work in an environment with computer-related as I
love to work with computers. Furthermore, I have learned by myself about
computer programming since I am 14 years old. Until present, I have covered a
few computer programming languages such as Visual Basic, BASIC, MS-DOS,
HTML, CSS, C++ and other computer skills for instance photo editing
(Photoshop) and video editing (Corel VideoStudio).
Since then, I have developed a number of software such as Internet Browser,
Media Player, Paint, Anti-Virus, Downloader, Click-based games and few websites
for instance Peers Website (prstaiping.zxq.net) and Maresmart Alternative Website
(maresmart.fav.cc).
It is proven I am a fast learner if the subject is related to computers for
example Mathematics. On the other hand, I may learn by myself about computer
and programming as I am fully interested with the subjects.
For your information, I am an optimistic student, always looking forward,
learning from past experience either own experience or others, and I am well
equipped with leadership and management skills. Therefore, I promise I will be the
best asset for any company that I work for.
