WHY COBOL?
While Java and .NET are "touted" as the future of computing, COBOL "is" the backbone of the majority of mission critical business applications in use today.

WHY People?
People are what make our business work. We are dedicated to the people we work with. Our customers are both our clients and the candidates we place on behalf of our clients. Our mission is to find the right job for the right person and the right person for the right job.

We foresee an increasing need for talented COBOL people to design, develop and maintain the mission critical applications that continue to run the world's business.

The popular belief today is that COBOL is long gone, replaced by server and web based applications. We feel that is a myth.

We envision the future as an integration of legacy mainframe data and structured processes displayed and manipulated by server and web based applications for business users.

CobolPeople.com helps our clients identify excellent COBOL candidates for Contract, Contract to Hire and Full Time Staff positions.

We develop customer loyalty by looking out for our customers interests first. Our customers just happen to be candidates AND clients.
