    Does being a member of the BCS (British computer Society) help you get a contract?

    Does it play significant role in this? or do clients not really care..

    I just got MBCS membership, and wondered whether clients do actually look for this. Do they even knowwhat it means on a CV !?!?

              Dunno - I doubt it. My degree hasn't helped! I've actually started leaving it off my CV.

                I think you'd be better off having good experience with a couple of blue chips to be honest.

                And naturally be well endowed of course...

                  It usually doesn't, but it does occasionally. I've had my MBCS noted positively in past bids, but I don't know whether it made an important difference.

                    Can someone explain all the abbreviations.

                    I have a BEng/EMETk Hons and I don't even know what that stands for.
