More applications.....

[poltr1]

Applied for about a half-dozen jobs today. Nearly all of which wanted more experience than what I had in the particular language or application, or they wanted newer versions of applications. Example: I worked with Oracle 5.1.22 on an OpenVMS platform for 4 years. But everyone seems to want Oracle 11i. And even thought I have 6 months of C++ experience, they wanted someone with 2 years of experience.

Maybe I'm doing too good of a job filtering myself out or disqualifying myself. After all, I know I'm my own worst critic.

Or maybe it's time I no longer have what people want and it's time to say the hell with the rat race and start my own business.

Remember that every rejection is one step closer to a "yes."

I know that's easier to say than to live by.

You will find a job if you're persistent enough. Where are you looking? I might be able to help.

Good luck, on your search. It may be frustrating, but I am sure that soon you will be sucessful - just don't get down, on yourself.
