Really? Java is so wanted? Where are you?

• DanBC 11y ago
  Java is one of the most commonly used programming languages. There are problems with each of these surveys, but they all show java either in the lead or near the lead. http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2015/01/14/language-rankings-1-15/ http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2015/01/14/language-rankings-1-15... http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.... http://langpop.com/ http://langpop.com/

  Where are you, such that Java's NOT in demand is the question.

  There are a lot of Java jobs out there.not in startup-land but government and big fortune 500 firms wrote a lot of Java applications in the 90s and early 2000's that they are still maintaining. Also, because of this they will often write new applications in Java because that's what their in house developers who were hired to maintain old apps already know. I worked on a java server application about 10 years ago and I get more recruiters contacting me about Java positions from that one item on my resume than I get from anything more recent or currently popular.

    >> I worked on a java server application about 10 years ago and I get more recruiters contacting me about Java positions from that one item on my resume than I get from anything more recent or currently popular. Drop it from your resume. Go ahead and leave the position and project description, but leave the language out.
