I think the general rule is if you can do 50% of the job, and it's in 
your current field go for it.

That's what I did with my BURST! job and I got it. I didn't know about 
40% of what I needed. But I showed them I could do it and learn and they 
hired me.

I was scared to death, but it was a fantastic experience.
