I spent some time working on a skill resume, the kind of resume college students put together and realized, I am not in college and everything I learned was self-taught. Of course I would like some real world achievements but don't consider throw-away code an achievement and am failing to really see any. I don't even wish to entertain the thought of lying about anything.
What are some achievements an employer may be looking for in someone willing to start at ground level, entry level, intern, etc? What are some real world achievements every n00b will need under his/her belt in order to be taken seriously? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
