According
to a recent Network World article, graduating computer science
majors are still in demand, despite the massive layoffs at many U.S.
Companies. Among comments received from corporate recruiters and
college staffs are that the industries with the greatest need may be
shifting, according to economic conditions — with the financial
sector cutting back dramatically, for example.
Still,
the article is focused primarily on those who might fill IT roles.
What's you're take on opportunities for newly graduating students
entering the industrial automation field, or other fields where data
acquisition skills are required? And if you're involved in corporate
recruiting, or just looking to fill a position or two in your
department, what skills are most needed and what positions are
proving most difficult to fill?
