Hello lovely PA Help/Advice Forum Residents,
My brother recently (like, this last weekend) graduated with an AA in Computer Information Technology, and now seems intent on doing the same programming stuff he has been doing for several years now but would like to get paid for it. Any advice on where to look for entry-level programming/software/etc jobs in the Seattle-Tacoma area, including the various local online job listings and resources? Any and all help would be appreciated.
Many thanks

That said, with an AA and no experience, he is not likely to get hired directly by any of those but it doesn't hurt to apply. His more realistic chance is to go for a contractor position to build up some experience. Check wth Volt, Robert Half, Excel and the like (there are dozens of contracting agencies).
Though even as a contractor getting a developer job directly might be a stretch. Definetly apply! But he should also look at SDET (software development in test) jobs as a first step in his career.
