What do I do to make myself look more appealing to employers w/ a BS in CS and nothing more than classroom XP?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Here is something I hate - prospects don't do ANY research on the company they are interview with. Do this! Ask questions about the company.... Think about what challenges they may be facing and try to think up solutions even before an interview...

M$Certainly, work on open source projects may be a good opportunity to gain experience, but ensure that you only include this information on your resume if the employer you intend to work for looks favorably on open source initiatives -- some employers may not be willing to hire someone to work on proprietary code, if there is a concern that the employee might sniff around for potential violations of GPL.
Above all, I find that personal interest and enthusiasm is one of the best characteristics for new hires, as well as apparent time taken to do individual research into related topics of interest (OpenCL/CUDA for instance, or even unrelated programming languages).

Sometimes, like with my case. I showed them value while interning and they hired me as a regular employee after it was over.
Good luck.
Life.

M$In your interview as good questions about their current projects and what they are looking to do in the future. I look for people who are passionate about what they do and can see themselves making an impact in my organization. Do not put anything on your resume that you arent ready to answer questions about. Think that someone has never heard of some archiac system called assembly you heard about in class. Well you never know when the guy you are interviewing cut his teeth on assembly and keyed on that point. But when you cant even explain what the acumulator is its a dead give away you lied.
