Also i have seen listings where they want 5+ year in .Net or they will not look at you. I have chatted to them and they believed that there are people out there will 5+ years in it. I would not put something done on my resume or on an application where I had not done either a perfessional project using the technology or unless I use it heavily for my home business. Just using Perl in your spare time at home does not sound like you have coded up or debugged alot of sites with it. Everyone can lookup information on Perl, but they want someone that has used it. Even if its a person site/project.

I also know a guy that could not get hired as a programmer with only an associates and no experience. He eventually did get hired because he was a go-getter and learned things fast. I also gave him a good recommendation, and that turned out good for everyone involved. So I think its also who you know too.

For my current job, one of the things that I think helped me is that I try to keep up on the latest technology (hardware and firmware) and so did the hiring manager. So now after meetings we talk about his X800 video card and his A64 FX51 cpu and how well it plays Doom3. Being a geek can help too.
