Um, behaving in a forum gets us a paying job? All righty then... whatever.

[viking60]

Well in any case it couldn't hurt (behaving ). Displaying your technical brilliance and and offering solutions to fellow community members has been known to make a difference.
After that you only have to go to University and get your Bachelor - it only takes three years - and you are good to go.

If you get bored after that you can add two years and do the Master. I have heard that b1o wants to go for the ph.d.
All inspired by this forum of course

Remember in the IT business you are not that effected by local depressions - it's a global market.
It is easy really - you only have to be better than the rest of the world - how hard can i be?

[dedanna1029]

Well, all I'm going to say is that in many years of foruming, not only at this forum and at the MDV one, and as having been a government employment recruiter, it never did jack for me. I've learned the hard way, "it's who you know", not "what you know".

[viking60]

Yes that helps. But only "who you know" without the "what you know" only leaves the ultimate failure - becoming a politician.

[dedanna1029]

Not really. It's the only way we can get a McDonald's job here in the states, much less anything else.

[viking60]

Yes McDonalds is a local job. But in the IT world you can work in Kuala Lumpur even if you are in Portales. That is a difference (unless you know a lot of people in Kuala Lumpur of course).

[dedanna1029]

And he's working locally, aye?

SpecTec Norway
P.O Box 15
Strandveien 15
Lysaker
Norway

... where a forum normally would have nothing to do with it...

... and of which he could get locally, with pen and paper, and references.

[viking60]

Yes and in Italy the US and Australia......+++ There are no limitations of transport like with McDonalds.
And stop bashing this forum
Of course it was the most important factor ... how dare you!

[dedanna1029]

I'm not bashing the forum. I'm stating the reality of the jobless economy.

[viking60]

Yes there are some crisis going on. Be happy you do not live in Greece. They have overspent and under worked since they got the Euro - expecting it to secure their wealth forever.
The IT jobs are often very global though. Of course that makes it interesting to put the jobs where the labor/efficiency factor is the cheapest. Now the Norwegians have top scores for efficiency so it is good business to hire here.
