Hi everyone,
I did my Masters degree in Computer Science some years ago now, which involved a lot of programming in C and
Java. I really enjoyed it at the time, but my work since then has mainly been in Sys Admin/Support roles. I have come to realise over the years, however, that programming is the life for me! So last year I passed my OCPJP (SE 6) and now I'm really keen to get some real world experience.
I'm enthusiastic about getting work experience, in whatever form that may come. So I'm open to volunteering and internships, as well as full and part-time jobs. I should mention that I live in Sydney, Australia.
I'd also be interested to hear your advice on the next steps to making myself more employable. Should I start another certification, or should I be adding skills that compliment the core Java that I have studied? Or just trying to write lots of code?
