You have a point about web designer and Deviantart. But it could be our keenness to identify a natural designer, instead of only focusing on students with web design skills.

With design, it’s whether you get it or you don’t. A student who “gets” design and inspired by it, be it from Deviantart or any other place for that matter, is something very exciting for Stampede. We take them seriously.

Web design is a skill that can be learned and polished. Good design sense, you gotta have it.

And very keen findings there, even if they were simple questions. By the way, I”d not really consider Deviantart a place for web designers, generally more designers per se. 🙂

I’m feeling excited to drill candidates later on now. ROFL!

p.s.: To the UTP designer, you may have wanted to consider communicating the 3 bottom content areas better cause it looks too consistent. Though I can bet this is better than what it was previously. 😉

It would be wonderful if UTP starts to venture out into real industry interest instead of merely skimming the surface. It has been 5 years since we graduated with limited web exposure so I’d say it’s about time too.

Also, Nasi Lemak Kukus you say, eh? Darn it we should have asked around.

do Stampede’s office expecting visitors?

if it is, then it would be great because we love to go there and have a chat with the team and also to present you the certificate of appreciation for sponsoring the Convofair 08 website.

i’ll save this n later on in my interview all of these can be applied, 😉

i am fond of all stampede’s work and i’ve visited w3c, it actually came out after i googled

That’s unexpected – I am the one who smiled the most??

Ya, maybe some time later you guys should come over to UTP to give a talk on web standards. 😉 I think even the lecturer would be interested.

The new V5 has got another of our favourite these days – _nasi lemak kukus_. It sounds like you guys missed them. But well, there’s always the next time. 😉

All in all, I enjoyed conversing with the students. Some of them were rather insightful of the serious gap between subjects taught and what the industry actually requires. I do wish they asked more questions cause we would be more than happy to share our experience.

I felt a tinge of pride gawking at all the cool new buildings that weren’t there when we left school. Even Dov was adamant to get his nasi daging goreng kunyit fix after all these years. Man, we sure hit V4 cafe hard!

I don’t mind to wait actually. Not that I enjoy waiting, but sometimes occasional waiting can make me think of things that I do not have time to think of, or things that do not come into my mind usually. So waiting time is the time for me to slow down my steps and look around me. Waiting is a form of meditation!

And I thought waiting is compulsory before interviews! =D

Don’t worry about keeping us waiting. =))
