Job Market in DC Metro Area?
What is the job market in Washington DC metro area like? I'm seeing quite a bit of job postings where one needs security clearance. I do not have security clearance, and I know that the process is long enough and backlogged that it would take me a good long while, if ever, to obtain one with security clearance. So, what is the market like for those without security clearance and a knowledge of ColdFusion, in the Washington, DC metro area? ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Re: Job Market in DC Metro Area?
It really depends on the company. As a green card holder I'm not eligible for security clearances, but the demand for commercial and government CF related work is still very large. You should have no trouble getting a position with or without a clearance. One suggestion is to use the Washingtonpost.com's jobs site and use Coldfusion or Cold Fusion as the search terms. Quite a few open jobs will show up, with and without clearances required. hth, larry On 10/11/05, Lola Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What is the job market in Washington DC metro area like?

I've never had a problem finding a CF position in the DC area, and usually it happens fairly quickly. I suppose it depends on how experienced you are, how many other languages you can work in, your methodology, etc., more than anything else. Good luck on your hunt!
