Good luck

Previously GT is blue badge but they are not truely blue badge (not enjoy all benefits that true blue badge gets).
Because of hiring freeze (headcount has to be flat), new GT are now hired as contract worker and no longer under Intel.

If you having Hardware Description Language(HDL) knowledge, why not you looking for design job?
If you are really into design, i don't think you need SAP/J2EE/C/C++. What you need for design is HDL + digital logic.
Programming skills are depend on which department/field you looking to join.

I guess you are Electronics Engineering graduate?

Hmmm... depend on what you like to work as and you cannot compare HDL with SAP/J2EE.
They are different things. SAP/J2EE is on computing but HDL is on digital design.
May be SAP/J2EE have better prospect in KL?

Digital design is not about programming but about logic design knowledge.
HDL is just a language to describe your hardware or a bunch of code that you write to make it behave as the hardware you designing.
Perl can be used to simplified your tasks or automate your tasks. It is good to know but might not required for your daily jobs in digital design.

Great to hear that. But you need to know digital logic design in order for you to benefit from VHDL knowledge you have.
Else you can do nothing with your VHDL knowledge. btw, VHDL is outdated

Did you took circuit theory, digital logic design and/or analog logic design?
If no, then that is the difference.

I notice you likes programming a lot.
