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.
