To the trade rags that claim finding COBOL devs is getting tougher, ignore. I'm a C developer, and I picked up COBOL in a few days.
Big corporations are going to have HR policies about only hiring people with many years of experience in the necessary language, not those who "can pick it up". That's what they mean when they say there are not enough qualified candidates. I'm not taking sides :) just pointing out corporate reality. ________________________________ Evan Koblentz, director Vintage Computer Federation a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit evan@vcfed.org (646) 546-9999 www.vcfed.org facebook.com/vcfederation twitter.com/vcfederation instagram.com/vcfederation
