Immediate opening for a software intern in Southern Oregon (Grants Pass)

Today I spent some time visiting with a number of key managers and developers at a company in Grants Pass called Pharmacy Computer Services, Inc.. They are doing some exciting things in relation to Web based applications, cloud computing, HCI, testing, etc. If you happen to live in the Grants Pass area and are interested in working THIS SUMMER in an exciting company of about 30 employees please let me (randal.albert@oit.edu) know ASAP and I will provide you with some additional information and a contact name. After visiting with them about our program it appears it would best if you had completed at least the sophomore year of the SET program and had taken CST 236 - Software Systems Testing.

If you have already graduated and are looking for full-time work or would like to return to southern Oregon they would love to talk with you too. I will visit with Jan Goodyear in our career center early next week and she too will be able to provide you with some additional information.

We hope you all have a safe and enjoyable 4th of July!
