My friend finished up his BIT degree this past April. He had a difficult time finding jobs online. He was hunting for jobs with pretty much 0 luck until October when his current employer contacted him for an interview.

He's currently making something in the neighborhood of 38k/year contract work (and he has the 4 Year Honours BIT degree). Assuming his current job place likes him he'll get offered a full time job with benefits and hopefully a nice boost in salary (but likely not that big of a boost since it's a smaller company). He's currently middle management working for a place that develops games for cell phones. I don't know how much of what he learned he's using....but needless to say he'd have likely been better off with a BCS.

If it makes any difference, he loves his job. It's exactly what he wanted to do and he loves it there, it's very laid back. This is in the private sector.

Hope this Helps.
