Matt says:
I’ve been working as a software developer at SouthEastern Freight Lines’ IT department since June. We’re now looking to add four more developers to our team, and I’ve been asked to reach out to the December grads at USC. I’ve attached the official job listing to this email. The primary languages that we use are Java, COBOL, and SQL. I came in having no experience with COBOL or SQL, but was able to pick it up quickly, so not being familiar with those won’t be an issue. Aside from the programming the culture and environment truly is great here at SouthEastern and I’m enjoying working here.
