In our company, getting on a project is like going through an
employment agency. You have to convince the PwC project
director to put your CV (aka resume) forward to the client,
who then decides to hire you for a given role
</background>
We have a scale for skills which (from memory and paraphrasing
cos I'm not booting up my laptop) goes like this:
0: Never heard of it
1: Trained - have read a few books or been on a course
but never really done it anger
2: Novice - done this once or twice
3: Practitioner - do this regularly, it's my normal job
4: Mastery - I'm really good at this, and help/teach other
people
5: Guru - I am Jakob Nielsen/Linus
Of course, we could equally use the geekcode scale. Yeah,
that'd make more sense.
Cheers
Martin
