I joined the Software House Mentec as a Junior programmer having been recommended by the University of Central Lancashire as one of the top 6 students in my year.I became very familiar with COBOL, which I had used at University, and picked up invaluable knowledge of the Manufacturing/Engineer To Order processes whilst supporting and customising the IMPCON product, sold by Mentec.I eventually left Mentec to work as a Business Analyst for Source One Solutions which was now run by the former Managing Director of Mentec, Tom Kelly.
