Thanks for the article, Chris. The most significant part of the article regarding EMC is: [quote begin] For instance, data storage system maker EMC Corp. (EMC) of Hopkinton, Mass., is looking to hire about 1,200 people in 1999. More than a third of the fast-growing company's employees are in Massachusetts. Ken Mokler, EMC's director of worldwide recruiting, said the company must compete with other high-growth technology regions for very qualified people. "There are more jobs than there are people to fill them," he said. [quote end] No matter how a company's business is growing, if it can't find the people it needs to hire, corporate finger nails start getting bitten. BTW, I live in New England and from all I have heard and read in the local papers (_Boston Globe_ and _Providence Journal_), the biggest problem a person with technical ability moving up here looking for a job will face is deciding which job to accept.
