There are things that you really only learn once you get out of school and into your respective field. However, while in school, if you gain said tehcnical knowledge and also become very tech savy with REVIT or any technical software for that matter, I believe you are invaluable to a company and the industry. We are a computer generation of out of the box thinkers... If they can prove that they can quickly and willingly learn, know that you are bringing in a new generation of skillsets that the older (yet more trade experienced) generation just doesn't understand intuitively. Remember the saying, you can't teach an old dog new tricks..
