mm..thanks for the discussion - im about 99.99999% sure im NOT doing med.
but out of curiosity - what is the job market for IT (or realted industries) like around the world?
pyko - I'm just outside of Boston and this area was hard hit over the last few years with layoffs and cutbacks in the high-tech industries. Programmers however, have had a pretty easy time finding new jobs when necessary. The high-tech sales, marketing and operations folks are the ones that were left high and dry.
Software Engineering is a pretty big field and there are always jobs open. The trick is matching your own skillset with job openings.
