hi,
I was wondering how many exams you need today to get an entry level job and is there anyway you guys can provide an insight on how to get an internship? Also, what kind of computer skills you need ?
Thanks.

In my experience, at least 2 exams needed. As far as computer skills, I would say make sure you have "general" computer skills, as wells as the ability to make spreadsheets and work with databases, such as Excel and Access. This way you can market yourself as a "spreadsheet monkey," which should help in getting in internship. Besides the major MS and Lotus products, each company uses different software, so it's impossible to have experience in everything that they're looking for. If you can demonstrate that you have the ability to learn anything thrown your way, it should be enough.
