Guidance for getting a job

Now I am working on Flash Action Script3.0 in xxxxx company. I want to change the company based on the experience I have gain. But the problem is, when I browse for job openings, the job description contains relavant experience on flex, developping mobile apps along with flash as3.0. From 1 year on words I was working on Flash as3.0 only. I dont know any of them mentioned above. Do I need to learn all these or Can I continue my career with only flash as3.0? Please suggest me. I want to improve my career with good salary.

I guess a lot depends on where you are looking for work. you can certianly continue purely with AS3 but you options would be more limited.
I haven't seen that much demand for Flex, it's certainly a small percentage of the jobs I have seen.
As for mobile this is big area for AS developers at the moment and knowing some wouldn't hurt.
If you want to move and give yourself as much chance as possible I would suggest trying to build demos in a variety of application platforms.
Create a simple mobile app, do some social networking (e.g. a facebook game) and possibly a smiple Flex application and apply for these jobs. 3D demos can really impress as well. you might not have the commercial experience but if you have the demos, come accross well, demonstrating you want to learn these technologies and you know the basics you have a good chance; depending on who else applies.
A good company will realise you have a good grounding in AS and can apply what you know to these new areas. For a good developer moving from web based AS to mobile is not hard a every company should know this. There is a little more to learn for Flex but if you have the time is well spent, however someone looking for a Flex developer might be a little more demanding in terms experience
as a side note I got my first AS3 gig with no flash experience at all. I came from a Java background and a good relationship with Sega and developed the original sonic engine for their playSega website

  • Essential skills for getting a job in programming

    I am working in digital media operations. I want to move to programming. I have checked jobs and one thing i realise is just by mastering java i wont get a job. I need skills in 3 areas for getting a decent job.
    Language such as java
    Scripting such as HTML, XML etc
    and SQL or some server
    now what are the essential skills to get a junior to mid level job in programming?

    search4survival wrote:
    it would be a lot better than salesSo that's what "digital media operations" is. I did wonder. :-)
    I would definitely read Kevin's article, because it's right on the money. Depending on how far along you are in your career, the 10,000 hours it talks about may be difficult to manage, but you may be able to get some of the way there. You might also want to ask yourself a few questions:
    1. Do you like the idea of programming, or do you just think it might get you out of your current rut?
    2. Are you willing to put in the graft? A lot of programming is repetitive and boring and, like most jobs, as a junior you'll probably get a lot of the Joe-jobs.
    3. Are you willing to put in time outside your 40-hour week - reading and doing? Because that's likely to be where you do a lot of your learning. It may take a while for the effects to be noticed by your colleagues/managers as well.
    I'm also a great believer in understanding principles, and that can involve some dry reading. So, once you've mastered the basics, look for good background material (it may also help you follow your colleagues when they're talking techno-babble):
    Language such as java - not a bad place to start, but find some material on Object Orientation (the why, not the how) once you've got past "Hello World".
    Scripting - a couple you might want to look at are perl and bash.
    SQL or some [database] - absolutely, but try and find a book on data management theory too. It's surprising how few programmers know much about it these days.
    Hope I haven't put you off too much, and best of luck.

  • Need guidance for setting up distribution list

    I have OD setup, I have Mailing Lists setup for groups such as IT, Marketing, etc.
    The only thing I have not quite figured out is setting up distribution lists for outside senders that can be distributed to LDAP users in OD. I have been searching the forums and have found bits and pieces of data, but cannot yet locate any guidance for getting this setup.
    I thought that this would be handled in the /etc/aliases file, but it appears that this only applies to local users.
    If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be grateful.

    I understand that more than 15,000 photos in a catalogue will degrade Lightroom's  performance
    100% incorrect false misleading don't listen to this nonsense, people in this and other forums have over 1/4 million photos in a single catalog
    I am concerned that several catalogues will be confusing about which catalogue a specific image is in.
    Very smart!
    What guidance can someone suggest for creating and organizing multiple catalogues?
    Use a single catalog, and move towards keyword/caption/metadata organizing rather than folder-based organizing (as much as can practically be done given the time constraints in your life)

  • How to get a Job as SAP BASIS Fresher

    Hello Master's,
          I'm Raju Maddu and I'm from Vizag (Visakhapatnam). I have completed my B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering at 2012. Once I've completed B.Tech, I started my career in the Education industry as System Administrator along with CCNA training at NIIT. And I have 2 years experience in that field.
    I did a lot of research and I found that I have a good career ahead of me in the SAP BASIS domain. I joined a institute and I did the BASIS course. They have provided real time training with the SAP BASIS tools and t-codes & Security. And I have real time experience in SAP BASIS.
    However, I don't have the SAP certification. I'm trying to get in to the SAP basis field. I also don't know how to reach a right contact for getting a job as a fresher in SAP BASIS.
    Please let me know how to get a job as a BASIS fresher. Any help will be very much appreciated.
    Regards.

    Hi Raju,
    its somewhat too tough to get a job in SAP as a fresher, but it doesn't mean that it is impossible.
    I will only sujjest you to upload your resume at all leading job-portals, but please search any small
    scale industry, where sap has been implemented, and talk to them (i know its not easy, but never
    loose your hope anyways).
    You have told that, the training institute has provided you real time exposure, but for your kind information, these things are not calculated as a real time exposure in any companies,
    if you work in any organization, then only it will be counted.
    So, search, search and search, untill you get a job, even in starting if salary will be low, just
    catch it, once you will get right exposure, it becomes fruitful for you.

  • I'm running 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro and need to update to Java 7 in order to take a software assessment test for a potential job. The Java app will only upgrade from 10.6 or higher. What can I do?

    I'm running 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro and need to update to Java 7 to take software assessment tests online for a potential job. What can I do?

    Apple Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 10
    Apple Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 17
    Apple Java 2013-005
    I would suggest you upgrade your computer's OS minimally to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
         For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
    B. Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Trigger substitution rule for a background job

    Hi all,
    I ve written a subroutine in Substitution rules for FI in GGB1 tcode for F110 transaction to replace the section code (bseg-secco) while posting a fi document.
    but the substitution rule is not getting triggered as F110 runs a background job to post the document...
    The substitution is active and the activation level is active all the time.
    Could u please suggest how to get it triggered for a background job...

    Measuring External Processes
    Use
    The runtime analysis allows you to switch into work processes that are already running and to measure the runtime of dialogs running in them as though they were running in the current session. You can have up to ten external sessions, which may be of any type – for example, dialog, update, or spool. This runtime analysis variant is ideal for monitoring long-running background jobs.
    Filename and Directory
    If you do not want to use the default filename and directory to store files, you can change them using the profile parameter abap/atrapath. If the profile parameter does not contain an entry at all, an error occurs when you start the runtime analysis.

    Hi Jay
    Get the position of the employees for whom you are getting the error message and maintain infotype "Canada Groups for WCB" for those positions. This should solve your issue.
