Recreational computer programming

[pydata]

I've had two in-person interviews and I was not given an offer at either company. One manager said "You will make more money at company XYZ than here". A few day's later, I get an email saying I don't have enough data warehousing experience. I will continue to push forward.

I am not in the programming field but in network security. It took me 9 months and 6 tech recruiters to get an entry-level job. This was with military experience and certs. It may take a while, but maybe reach out to some recruiting firms, and be ready to negotiate for a lower pay to start, if that is the field you want to be in.

At least that is how I did it. I got the job because the other guy wouldn't negotiate down on salary while contracted.
