If you know how to code COBOL, the state of New Jersey wants to hear from you.
Systems that power unemployment benefits in New Jersey are running off of 40-year-old mainframes that require COBOLNew Jersey Governor Phil Murphy speaks after taking the oath of office in Trenton, New Jersey, January 16, 2018.New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy says that the state is looking for volunteers with skills that can be used to help in the COVID-19outbreak, and one of those skills is knowing your way around a 61-year-old programming language used on big, old, mainframe computers.
New Jersey needs COBOL programmers because many of the state's systems use older mainframes, and those systems are now seeing record demand for services as the coronavirus outbreak disrupts the economy. "Literally, we have systems that are 40 years-plus old, and there'll be lots of postmortems. And one of them on our list will be how did we get here where we literally needed COBOL programmers?" Murphy asked on Saturday.
"Someone called me the COBOL King, I'm not sure that was a compliment, but we've gotten a lot of folks who have raised their hands and said they know how to program in COBOL," Murphy said.
