Hiya, I just graduated in July with a BS degree in computer programming and information systems. This isn't relevant to these open positions, just sharing my experience with trying to find a job presently in this field.
I have been looking now for an entry level position for 4 months. The main problem I have is that 100% of the local companies (read: 15 minutes radius from my current location, NY) magically want their applicants to have 5 years experience and a Bachelor's for their entry level positions. Other similar problems I have experienced is that some companies want their entry level applicanst to have intimate knowledge (read: 2 years) of about 7 different programming application languages, only of which 2-3 are taught in college. The rest of the requirements they ask for are random programs. And the unfortunate thing is that for each company asking for 7 requirements, the standard 2-3 are the same, but the other ones are always different, making it difficult to pick a language to study and practise on your own in hopes of meeting future requirements because of the limitated use and randomness of the other languages.
Ok done ranting, still /LFJ (looking for job, hehe) in NY, I'm not looking to leave here, so that does lower my chances of finding work, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed and looking around constantly at local positions.
Best of luck though to those applying here.
