A couple of thoughts..
1. Hang around the community that is developing at http://www.gisaxis.com. 2. I do not think there is a certification for GIS, so be sure to specify that you went to training and do not use the word certified. People seem to think of certified a little differently. Finally, good luck in your search and we hope to see you at gisaxis.com.

Hi Art. Fabulous advise and very well presented. Jonathan - Why is it when people ask for help here your responses are always nasty? Why are you signed on to this kind of forum if your only going to scrutinize when someone asks for some advise? Lighten up or don't bother responding as your energy is very discouraging to those who are new to EDI and just need a bit of help? Is your reasoning for being discouraging for your own job security???? Give it up already Art Douglas <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:acd%40ix.netcom.com> > wrote: Vaasmrv, My suggestion to you is to concentrate on making a great impression of yourself as a person, and to let the interviewer know you have completed training, with whatever certification you have earned. Most interviewers will take into consideration that you are new and inexperienced in the real world of EDI. But if they think you are enthusiastic (not over-the-top), engaging, serious with a sense of humor, able to communicate effectively both verbally and in writing, they may give you a try. One big no-no. This is not an internet chat room, and neither is your interview. Loose the chat-room abbreviations, and use capital letters where appropriate plz. LOL. OMG, I wouldn't hire u f u use these. Make it your practice to use complete sentences expressing complete thoughts from now on when writing in a professional setting. You want to be a professional. Act like one. Good luck! TO THE GROUP: This is the kind of newbie email I respect.
