I agree with you and Joel. In-house training is dead at most companies. Unless networking or systems development is part of their core business (like with INSS), companies handle such functions with homogenous, commoditized workers. Paying $150-$200 an hour for a four month network implementation project is much more cost effective than carrying a person at say $70k for a whole year. No offense to anybody intended, but most HR types couldn't even begin to gauge the differences between a good I.S. pro and a poor one, by resume or by interview. As the gatekeepers to corporate jobs, they are as much at fault for the inbalances in supply and demand as the Universities who continually spew graduates with no commercially marketable skills.
