WEEK # 11!!

Hey guys 

this week started off great because we  got to visit Linkedin which was an amazing experience. Getting to meet a few people that work for them is cool since they can talk to us about what they do. The fact that all of them where laid back and talking to us like they knew us was what made it easier.

Salesforce was good too getting more knowledge down. We got to Check all the specs on the computers that we received from USF. We didn't get to do any coding this week which sucks!! That's what some of us look forward to during the week. We are almost done just a few more days !!!

Week --9 & 10--

The last 2 weeks were very fun, we had a on site visit to LinkedIn, worked on a few customers computers, and took in a new donation of computers. The new LinkedIn building was insane, the whole work space was very inviting and friendly. All the mentors were awesome, they were super nice and super friendly. I really appreciated them taking the time out of their busy day to entertain us. After looking at their new work space, I would love to have a career at LinkedIn. We also got a new donation of computers from USF. We had to take inventory and make sure the computers were operable and worth keeping. This week was definitely one of the best weeks so far, I look forward to whats next.

week 10 and 11

We are now near the end of the mission techies program and things are starting to heat up. Last week we went to a couple of job sites to have a view of technology companies. We went to Jones IT to review what they did on a daily basis. They did a lot of what we practiced at MEDA such as ticketing a computer and documenting what was the problem with the computer. After the tour at that place, we went back to MEDA and we waited for another tech company called Monkey Brains. The guy that came in mentioned how we can use our skills to document tickets and work outside setting up wifi equipment. The next presentation we had was with the Jones IT CEO we met on Tuesday. He talked about the wifi connection and how channels can effect the speed of the wifi. On the 11th week we went to Linkedin to meet with our mentors! We had a good time there and we got to meet the mentors. Other then the presentations we had, we also worked on sales force and some coding. We also got some computers from UCSF and documented the info of what the computers had.

Well this week has been a hell of a week. I kinda got trapped in the abyss that is Vegas this weekend (one hell of a birthday weekend). Breaking my phone by jumping into a pool and losing my friend for almost a full 24 hours was not in my plans for this weekend but hey im thankful to be alive and still in one piece. However since i was trapped in vegas i was unable to go to linkedin and meet my mentor:( Luckily i am still able to get a mentor. In other news me and Danly replaced a laptop screen so that was cool. one more week!
Kilobye Kev out!

Week 11
I been chosen to be a leader of a group to manger 15 computers to search for the specs of the computers, so we copy the specs and  it in a little notes to keep track on each computer. ex: CPU type,RAM memory, and Hard Drive capacity, i help so i can pace the speed a little faster.

Week 10&11

Oh man this is it! It's already the second to last week of MEDA! This program has really taught me a lot. I had a really great time going to LinkedIn this week. Their building and working environment was very welcoming and friendly. It was really nice inside and I can't believe their dinning floor was that big. I had a great time meeting the mentors and getting to know each and every single one of them. They all had great personalities so I'm fine with who ever I will be partnered with. I also got to work on my tech support skills and finished helping my client with her computer. My partner and I been working on this computer for a while and we are finally done! I can't wait to see the smile on her face!
