Hello eutasoch jee:
Basically you'll need to look for some experience when you are in college itself i.e. internship in a reputed company. They will ask you to do crap work but you'd have to "pretend" you are really happy to do crap work as you don't have any choice at that time. Once you have gathered enough experience there, you can start showing your true colors :) i.e suggest a better way to do things without offending the ego of the existing developers. Sometimes that is the biggest issue which is to be likable rather than being overly talented guy...
If you are struggling to get in as an intern, I'd suggest slam in few of the java certifications, Java 6, Java web services, etc..that proves you are hard working and can go beyond the normal call of duty if needed... nothing else.. you'll gather more knowledge from doing the actual work rather than doing these stupid certifications.
Once you are in, you can move into architect roles and look at bigger and better things and of course better loads of money too!!
Good luck
Revival
Waiting for a new beginning!
