I was wondering if someone could give me more information on what a IT Specialist job would require from an individual if a college is searching for a Junior/Senior/Masters individual. I noticed they were fine with the combination of Engineering and Computer Science. I am actually a engineering major with a computer science minor. Any idea what they are looking for from an application? Anything that you can suggest that I might not think to write down on a resume for it?

I've worked for about 6 years in a print-shop printing local newspapers, business cards, etc. I like the idea of the Public Affairs Specialist job, but it seems more suited to people with a journalism background, rather than a printmaking background. Is it a really competitive MOS to get? If I don't get accepted there, is there an MOS in the field of printmaking?

I am joining the United States Air Force and I was wondering if there were any recommendations for a job that was one of the best. I was a really good job and i pretty much qualify for anyone of them. Quite frankly I would like to go in as some sort of Dental Specialist because I was in a pre-dentistry course in college. Is there a Dental Specialist job in the Air Force and if not, what are some of the best jobs in the Air Force?

The fees are becoming expensive, around £9,000. But if you could cut the costs of the education, leaving yourself to pay only for the exams, you would be on a real winner, after all most of the information on these courses you can find on the internet, usually it's easier to learn alone aswell. But most specialist jobs require degrees so is university the only way to achieve this?
