We are a locally owned and operated pest control company. We have been in business over 50 years. We are looking to have a software program created for our inspectors. We need to be able to incorporate an inspection report, pictures, work proposals, promotional material and details into one form. We currently use a combination of word and pdf documents that we combine together. It is time consuming for our inspectors to do this. We would like a faster, more user friendly format. Currently our inspectors use a laptop to write and combine these forms. We would like to move towards a Surface to give them the functionality of both a laptop and tablet in the field. A program that would work on this type of device is our ultimate goal. Will this description be enough? I am not sure how detailed it needs to be to generate some interest from the students. I can give more if needed. I look forward to your feedback. Thank you again for all your help.

Help needed with web application: Capstone Connect. New features requested:

1. Once a student has done and evaluation for another student , that student should be removed from the to do list (as conformation it was done)
2. See average grade for each student for each grade period
3. Reset password needs to be fixed, it doesn’t work
4. Open and close time for each evaluation. This would allow me to set up the evaluations for the entire semester.
5. The program needs to give the average to the second decimal place and especially all the way to 10. It stops at 9. This is really irritating.
6. The program needs to be able to copy questions from one evaluation to another or copy an entire evaluation. I have to either retype or copy the same questions one by one each time I open a new evaluation period. (the questions are the same).

I may have a couple more that would add to the work Dr. Dale McCants MCCANTS@cec.sc.edu

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.
