SCJP/SCJD/SCBCD vs job

Hi, everyone
Congratulations on passing the scbcd test! That's cool indeed!
I am new to ejb. I started preparation for the scbcd test a month ago, so I must pay myself for my near future test
I like programming and java, though I don't know how much that could help me to find a job in Canada. I have more than 8 years development experience in C/C++ in web/telecom/wireless areas, and started touching java one and half years ago. I got SCJP with 91% and SCJD with 94%.
All this is fine but all this could not help me finding a job in Canada. I landed Canada last year, and so far I just got some work experience in a supermarket as stockperson. From June, I also design and write java code for somebody, under JBoss. I get payed less than US$5/per hour in this "contract" work, without other welfare and benefit.
I hope the situation could be a little better after I get SCBCD.
Regards,

SCJP 91% SCJD 94% SCBCD 98% SCWCD1.4 86%<p>XML141 SCDWJS -- in progress<br />If you don't retreat, you are mostly among those who can surmount it.

Hi Hover,
Where abouts in Canada are you? CGI in Edmonton is always looking for good java programmers. Even if there isn't a posting on the web site, bother Toronto and Edmonton offices are a great place to start.
