    Any comments about your former employer? And what was your job there?
    What kind of developer at CS? ‘Only’ database side or also others?

    With LC Systems I had various projects ,mainly with swiss banks; also with a few other companies. My most recent “project” was by Bank Julius Baer as database administrator.

    I had some interesting projects, and some less interesting too. Sometimes I was close to my house, sometimes I was far and within the last ten years I drove about the distance from the earth to the moon. I had a company car and now I decided to buy no car this year. Public transportation is very comfortable in Zurich.

    In CS I will probably do database development, yes
