I have just noticed that my new handle here includes "Coder". This is a bit of a puzzle, as I am a "Blogger".

its all related to your number of posts (adds another post :P)

Irish based projects. A lot of other coders from various countries are competing here against Irish coders, but the projects seem to be mainly based in Ireland.

I have a friend who, having completed a third level degree in computing, is on the market for full time employment. Are there any tips that might lead to a good position, please?

Work hard ... get noted for your accomplishments ... write a good CV and cover letter ... and practice interviews with all those tricky questions.

Like what are your bad points ... what are your good points ... where do you see yourself in 5 years ...
