>> You know I think obviously get your degree, is important, get the foundation.
The thing that I would say is that if you want to do something in quality assurance,
you're going to need to be kind of well rounded.
You're going to kind of need to be a little more wide than you are deep.
So get experience in quite a few different technologies,
because in a quality assurance role, you're probably going
to be testing multiple different technologies.
And so the more experience you can get in different areas,
the better suited you'll be you know for testing those types of areas.
Yeah I would say, just be involved.
So one thing that I look for as a hiring manager in hiring you know students coming straight
out of college is I look for a passion, you know.
And one way to see a passion for IT, for example, is to see,
okay did they just do their coursework, or did they do their coursework and they got involved
in professional associations, and they were doing volunteer activities outside of class.
So I look for somebody who's going to set themselves apart, by saying,
you know this is something that I really am passionate about.
And this is something that I'm going to do on my own time,
not just during the school hours, right.
And so, yeah I think that's something that I look for.
