So I'm in the military, currently deployed in Iraq.
I've always loved computers, planning on taking the comptia A+ certification tests once I get out of here. I'll be out of the army shortly after my deployment. I've been dedicating a lot of my time here to ANSI C and C++. I'm almost through my C++ for dummies book, I've also been reading TC++PL by BS, Effective C++, TC++STL, etc... I've gotten a couple C and C++ certs through the army as well as a few A+ certs.
I'm planning on getting a simple A+ job as soon as I get out to pay the bills while I continue to study C++ and other programming languages (C# next? Not completely sure) I heard that the U.S. Government uses a lot of Delphi, I don't know anything about Delphi though.
I have a secret clearance and I know getting a clearance is one of the harder parts for people trying to land a government job. Does anybody know anything about landing a programming job with the government? Would it be easier to go that route than another given my military experience, clearance, and certs through the army?
Thank you!
