When posting to comp.lang.cobol please include a rate, or range of rates,
associated with the position(s) offered; doing otherwise leads many to
conclude that you are either trolling for resumes or running a blind ad to
determine rates.

Why? Few people learn much doing development except how to create work
for others (production support).

You won't get those with developers.

Hmmmmm... where was that... ahhhhh, wonderful thing, this Deja... errrr,
this Google... from
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp...e&
hl=en>

--begin quoted text:

... sounds a bit more reasonable than the pimp who told me that the client
wanted a 'great, heads-down, run-with-the-ball coder who was a real Team
Player'... the following interchange ensued:

Me:  'Hmmm... that is kind of like asking for someone with all the fierce,
*searing* insight of the True Introvert... but he has to be good with
people, too!'

Him: 'Uhhhh, yeah... so, can you do it?'

Developers do not have good analytical skills???  Does that mean my job
title of "Developer/Analyst" is an oxymoron?

This is quite bizarre.  What, in your opinion, is the job of a software
developer?

To keep support analysts busy providing fixes at unearthly hours to
problem solutions which were:

1.  Not what the customer asked for;

2.  Possibly what the customer asked for but certainly not what they
thought they were asking for;

3.  Possibly to provide the customer with what they asked for but
definitely not what  they needed;

4.  Correcting errors in design/analysis/programming;

5.  (And this is my favourite) Never tested as the development ran out
of budget (and after all, what are product support analysts for except
to catch all development pratfalls?).

My problem isn't with you but is with the original job-poster who seems
to assume that production support analysts don't know anything about
development, design, analysis. I learned a lot by fixing other peoples'
errors.

Thank you, Alistair, for putting it so well.

In a nut-shell (where I frequently work), I'd say "Developers
grow up to do Support".
