500 Medewerkers over naar Windows 7

Enige tijd geleden kwam er een Artikel op Techworld te staan dat ze op zoek waren naar personen die bezig waren met een Windows 7 Migratie. Bij een klant waar ik momenteel gedetacheerd zit ben ik hier druk mee bezig. Dus voor de fun maar ingeschreven en uit eindelijk een telefonisch interview gedaan.
Ik wist dat ze zouden gaan plaatsen in Windows 7 migratie boekje die je krijgt op het Techworld Windows 7 Migratie Seminar. Waar ik ook aanwezig ben. Ik wist nog niet dat ze het online zouden plaatsen. En vandaag zie ik in Feedreader mijn artikel voor komen 🙂
