I have been a programmer using COBOL for about 4 years now. I really hated it and still do, but my biggest fault was NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT! I really like programming, and would love to continue, but not in COBOL. I think the only upside in my case is I have also been working on Java, although not as much, for about 3 years. But most of my time I had to use COBOL. Now, if I quit and start looking for a new job, my resume would still have COBOL and I will most probably be interviewed for the same kind of jobs, right? I am really interested in web development, and try and do something in that area in my personal time. In other words, how do I tell my future employer "Hey, I have 4 years of COBOL experience, but I just want to throw that away and start over. Please give me a job."? More details: Thanks for the replies guys. I know Java pretty well. I know PHP/HTML/Javascript/AJAX and all that jazz. I have my own personal PR4 website. I write programs for fun. I contribute to open source whenever I can. But since I graduated, I have been working with the same company for 4 years, and have no idea about how the job market is out there. Hell yeah, I can prove I know my stuff. But I have no *OFFICIAL, REAL WORLD* experience! For instance, I can't say 'I have solved the such-and-such problem in our intranet website' or 'I have a portfolio of clients I have made websites for'. I don't even know if it really matters, mainly because I have never tried taking an interview or even applying for a job until now. Thanks again!
