Christine, I did overlook Betsy's obvious qualifications. Unfortunagtely, I
think agencies, and employers do to. As you've proven, there is a way to
beat the system. I just think it takes more time than prospective clients
are willing to give someone with low-years as a TW. However, having said
that (am I contracdicting myself), I see so many adds for a senior TW with
3-5 years experience. But that's another thread.

Regrads,


Marc
