Specific Skills

Requires Bachelor degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field, 3 years of experience using Java, JSP, and JSTL. 3 years of experience in software engineering principles including objectoriented programming, design patterns, and SOLID.br br NOTE ON PREVAILINGWAGE DETERMINATION VALIDITY In merely beginning recruitment during the prevailingwage determination validityperiod, we comply with 20 C.F.R. 656.40 c. This, by itself, is enough to satisfy regulation. Prior expiration, then, of the prevailingwage determination, as of the time of filing of this form, is immaterial. See 20 C.F.R. 656.40c, indicating that to use a prevailing wage rate provided by the National Processing Center or NPC, employers must file their applications OR BEGIN the recruitment period required by 656.17e...within the validity period specified by the NPC. 20 C.F.R. 656.40c. Emphasis added. Here, it should be noted, specifically, that all 656.17e recruitment activities were begun while the prevailingwage determination was valid with any ONE starting before its expiration sufficient to begin the recruitment period required under 20 C.F.R. 656.40c and comply with the regulation. Id. Further, there, importantly, were not any 656.17 e recruitment activities in motion prior to prevailingwage determination receipt or issuance, highlighting still more 20 C.F.R. 656.40c consonance as interpreted by case law. Determination used here, thus, remains valid, its prior expiration notwithstanding.br br quot;RELATED FIELDquot;br First, the beneficiary holds a degree in Electrical Engineering which is a field related to Computer Science. Second, an equivalency evaluation of the degree combined with work experience has shown that the beneficiary possesses the equivalent to a Management Information Systems bachelors degree, which is also a field related to Computer Science. Note that the equivalency evaluation did not use any of the experience required for this position in order to reach its conclusion.
