Aye, basic computer skills are important. Most university graduates will come out with ECDL-equivalent skills: basic Word, Excel use etc. GIS-type evening classes are like hen's teeth though! Anyone know anywhere that offers that kind of teaching?
I remember attending a (non-archaeological) job interview, which was followed by a quick assessment of my IT skills. This involved switching on the computer and opening a new Word document. Apparently they'd interviewed a candidate for the job who had tried to use the mouse like a TV remote control![:I]
I got the job btw.
