Spot on. ( Although if you're after linux stuff, C is probably better than C#! ). The other thing, of course, is getting to the interview in the first place. So your CV *must* stand out from the rest, and your covering letter *must* grab their attention. Spend loads of time learning how to sell yourself. The front page of the CV must garner enough interest to actually turn to page 2, which will get you to the interview. You may need a few of these, as you'll be fighting HR with large companies, but in smaller ones may the person weeding out the CVs may well be your prospective future employer. ... off to do what I preach (: Steve
