While we are on this subject Guys start paying your interns.   Stop pretending they add no value to your organisations coz they do and they really work hard to impress.

Programming C++? for that amount? Are these guys going to be witting "Hello World!" applications all day? C++ is a VERY BIG and VERY COMPLICATED language. There's a lot that goes into developing a decent C++ program and it can take years of active development to master C++. Yeah theory can be learned in a couple of weeks and a simple app that asks your name and displays it can be built on your first day. That means nothing as far C++ is concerned, so don't start calling yourself a C++ programer just yet.

So sking for a C++ programmer in that age bracket and that amount in this day an age is crazy as this generation has practically no production code experience in C++. If it were PHP, JAVA, C# thats another story but not with C++.


Some interesting opinions on C++: <http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:TeiyUaX7XWsJ:www.gigamonkeys.com/blog/2009/10/16/coders-c++.html&hl=en&strip=1>.
