Even if you were perfectly up-to-date today, you would be behind the curve
the second z/OS V2R4 came out. All of us are constantly learning. You'll be
fine. Go for it!

Subject: How far out of date are my skills

I left the Z/OS world at the version 1.6 after nearly many years of
mainframe OS and CICS work .  I see adds for telecommute Z/OS support, how
far out of date are my skills?  What should I read up on to stay current?


I know that as we moved along in Z/OS and previous version, 95% of what we
continued to use was old, some new features were exploited, but never all of
them.  Most of the change was in hardware support.  I don't miss pulling bus
and tag cables under the floor :-)


I didn't leave the mainframe, it left me.  :-)
