Don't worry, that's a good thing. It means that a crappy company just filtered itself out of your job search. Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

I am perhaps reactive after feeling a little spooked by a recruitment experience. A company dealing in Java technology chose not to consider me further. The feedback was that my C.V. (resume) was strong but they did not want to consider me because I had worked with .Net as well as Java. I am left feeling worried as I hoped to keep skills in both Java and .Net up to a good standard in hopes that I would have more career options. I thought I should therefore be suitable to both Java and .Net roles especially considering I have Sun Java certification but not as yet any for .Net. I should not judge everything by the reaction of one company but I am now worried that by trying to straddle the gap I have unknowingly started to burn my bridges into Java development. As many here work for Java companies and might be involved in recruitment I wondered about your thoughts. Would you or your company dismiss candidate who had done both Java and .Net in favour of people who have only worked with Java related technologies? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
