Seeing Fiona and Rosie again!

Today i got the opportunity to see Fiona and Rosy again as they stopped by college. From my original information i thought they were going to give a talk however only me and max turned up (and even he forgot she was coming) which was disappointing to see such a little turn out for someone who could offer genuine advice after being in our position. 

Trusty Fiona didn't let us down, in fact im pretty sure a lot of what she told me may have been confidential so some of the information might be a little vague or left out entirely but needless to say i got a lot of information from both Rosy and Fiona. 

She told us things like what rates people pay for freelancers, and how Matter&Co might pay slightly higher but would expect work to be done in a much shorter space of time.

They both gave us advice on contacting people, such as act over confident, dont ask tell. keep sentences no longer than 20 words, dont write essay emails.

She also gave us advice with software, such as get used to using rubberhose. Print off keyboard shortcut guides and use them. Use skype more often, keep it professional.

She has also offered us a chance to work at Matter&Co which is both very exciting and very daunting, the rest of the information she gave us was about M&C and a little of what to expect. More on this in the future!
