We build devices for testing wireless phones and wireless phone networks. We constantly have to upgrade our software to work with new pones and to test new features as well as support customer in writing their test routines. We would rather hire someone who really understands RF and wireless technology and needs to come up to speed on programming than someone who was a great programmer but didn't understand the technology. Programming really isn't that hard these days.
We would rather hire a EE or CS but have physics majors working here as well. The physics major have the foundation to learn it but probably has not had a lot technology training. Once you get some experience in the filed nobody really cares and it is your experience that counts.
Software engineer is a huge field do you have it narrowed down more then that?

/NSSP: Alright, internet, I have a major decision to make.

I don't understand why you would major in physics when you know you want to work in CS.

Don't bother with physics, it's a waste of time for what you want to do.

Physics degrees are aimed at graduate work, and minors are rare in my experience

How many physics majors do we have here not working in the field of physics? At least four.
