Unfortunately I will have to disagree with you on this one. Having
been searching for solid employment for the last year, I'm finding that the
managers seek only to place someone who has done the exact job they are
trying to fill. And this is with 22 years of relevant experience on my
part. 8 years of web-back integration, 13 years inside the unix kernel,
coupled with 9 years of RDBMS experience don't seem to hold much weight
anymore.
You mention examples, I have a pair I use having fully developed both
sets

http://66.134.203.2/~beacker/genbank/gbf_extract.cgi?LOCUS=AF158101
The first being a photographic PHP based mechanism that I use in at least
a dozen pages without change. The second being a 30 million record data
set I utilize for selecting GenBank info. I'm finding it very frustrating
that my knowledge and capabilities are not found to be compelling. I have
utilized C for over 21 years, and perl for 20 years. Yet these don't
appear to be enough to get a position in Silicon Valley.
