Re: Are there any job openings for Ada programm

[David Tannen]

This is one subject that I know to much about (my wife and I consider
ourselves High Tech migrant workers).  Whenever I have looked for a new
Ada job I treat it like my second 40 hr/wk job.  I have a couple of rules:
	1)	Look for jobs anywhere you can stand to live.  Pick
		at least 4-8 cities (+750k in size).
	2)	Start getting Sunday papers in those areas and answer any
		job that sounds like you might meet it.
	3)	Get EE Times, Embedded Systems Programming and EDN.  They
		are more likely to have Ada ads than a Sunday paper.
	4)	Join SIGAda (locally and nationally) and network.

Pray. Pray. Pray.  I have had three Ada jobs in 4 yrs.  Ick.  I hope to
stay w/ Motorola for a long time.

Just my honest $0.02.
