I haven't found a job yet, as it seems most companies require lots of grades and don't even want to talk to you if you haven't any and cannot show you did the job they ask for at least a few years.
Ironically enough, more than half the job offers consist of these specs:
- High-level IT grade
- Latest MCSD grade
- At least one year experience with .NET
- Multiple years of experience with Visual basic and MS SQL
So, it seems I'm not even qualified enough to write some dumb VB program, because I haven't got the grades...
When asked, most companies say they really want a really good programmer / systems manager / network administrator above everything else, for (to me) simple and mostly low-level stuff. And when I tell them I can do that and send in my CV, I never hear anything from them anymore, or I get a refusal that I'm not qualified enough.
So, I was thinking of taking a difficult approach, and just filling in on my CV as profession: Hacker, and spend a page explaining to them what that really means, and leave it at that.
Or, alternatively, just state that I can do whatever they want me to and probably have done most of it in the past.
Do you guys think that might work? At least, it cannot possibly work worse than my previous CV's.
