No shortage of IT personell It's a shortage of employment for entry level employees.
Francis said in the Intel Forum:
As someone new to the IT field i dont think its a shortage of IT personell i think its a shortage of employment for entry level employees.
Doesn't seem that entry level means entry level anymore.
I see jobs with entry level in their descriptions and what do they ask for?
None other than a B.A and 5 yrs experience.
Go figure,
it's not the market for jobs, its the companies that want to pay you 15 an hour
and have someone with a B.A at the same time.
Well good luck to you all you IT pros out there in finding employment
if you arent up to the entry level "par".
