My experience: BS in Electrical & Computer Eng. 3-ish years professional experience variously spent on programming embedded Linux apps / device drivers, special-purpose Windows apps, QA on same. 10+ years amateur experience in bash scripting, Linux system administration, Lisp, &c. What I'm looking for: Full time programming job where I can learn a lot and enjoy working on interesting problems. What I'm NOT looking for: Most remote jobs. Government-contractor jobs, especially DoD. Where I live: Cincinnati, OH Where I'm looking: SF / Bay Area, Cincinnati, outside US, anywhere else (in order of preference) When I can start: Right away, with reasonable delays for moving Requirements: Health insurance Can be reached via: drewb@drewb.net, PM My school and work history has left me without specialty in any particular area. I've worked the most on Linux in C + scripting, but also a fair amount in Windows .NET apps (all flavors), a tiny bit of Perl, dabbling in Lisp and web things. I'd love the chance to work more on Linux kernel or related, or other open source projects, but would be quite happy to learn about and contribute to almost anything if the environment is right.

brc64, I hope you're getting paid to update the OP regularly, you must do a lot of edits! Well, I have another one for you: please remove the existing link in "Non-US" for me, as I no longer need the job that I previously asked about (well, I do, but it will have to wait). EDIT: My friend who does a little programming (and who owes me a favor) finally got back to me, so it looks like I won't actually have to hire anyone. Ignore the below \/ What I do now need is for someone to make a reasonably simple portfolio website so that people can view my arts. What I need is a high-compatibility gallery (so no Flash, for example) that you can set up and that I can periodically add to without much programming knowledge on my part, and without me having to buy (or steal) any expensive programs. There would be a front page where visitors can cycle through images, and a copyright + other info page. I don't need any fancy animations and I can do the site art myself. You can put an unobtrusive link to your own portfolio site at the bottom. I'm guessing it will take just a few hours at most to both make the site and to write a brief guide for me so I can add images and update text by myself in future, so I suppose around $120 by Paypal for 2-3 hours sounds reasonable to me (tell me if this is unrealistic). I'm going to purchase the domain names that I want when I get home today, but will not buy hosting until I've discussed with the person making the site what the best option is for me. I will draw my final design for the layout if I get any interest, and once we're agreed that the design is practical and serves my purposes, I will contract the lucky programmer to make it. If I want to change this design after the this time, I will contract you again to make changes. Note: I use Windows, so if I need to use a certain program to update the site, it had better be Windows 7 compatible! EDIT: Ignore the above ^ asteroceras fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Mar 2, 2011 |

From what I can see there aren't that many entry level jobs being posted on here but I will literally take anything I can get. I work in a call center taking calls for past due cable accounts and while I don't mind working on the phone (I even enjoy it at times) I don't want a job that has anything to do with collections/money. My experience: I don't have any formal experience with computers but I have been fixing and building them since I was about twelve (I'm 21 at the moment.) I've never met a version of windows that I couldn't master, I have good experience with a few linux distros and I can make my way around a mac ok. I am currently self studying for my A+ cert which mainly consists of filling in the holes for those oddly specific questions and saving up money to take the test. I plan on pursuing other certs as the need arises. What I'm looking for: Entry level help desk What I'm NOT looking for: I'm down for anything computer related. Where I live: Dallas, TX area Where I'm looking: Dallas, TX area When I can start: Pretty much as soon as possible, given appropriate notice for my current employer Requirements: No requirements here, I'm willing to take a paycut from my paltry $9.40 an hour just to get a foot into IT. Full time would be nice though. Can be reached via: This thread, PM, dansteinke972 at gmail. Ninja Dan fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Mar 2, 2011 |

I would strongly suggest taking some entry level microsoft exams for MCDST or whatever it's called now. They're cheap and should get you into some kind of desktop support position, which is what you want over anything 100% phone based.

My experience: Just finishing up my time at a vocational school (will provide more details if contacted), looking for any kind of entry level work that can at least get my foot in the door. I have had three or so years of maintaining, repairing, upgrading, and generally fixing computers. In my spare time I try to find old, unused or unwanted computers and make them like new again for families who need them (this includes installing an operating system, applying patches, installing software, etc). It makes for good practice and makes me happy. I have my A+, Network+, and Security+ and I know that doesn't say a whole lot when there are CISCO certs, but I guarantee I'm a quick learner and will do anything demanded of me. What I'm looking for: Any sort of entry level job period. I will do help desk (even if it's people calling in), delegated administration, whatever. What I'm NOT looking for: I'm not great with coding or photo manipulation software. Where I live: Brigham City, UT Where I'm looking: Salt Lake City, UT. SLC is my main preference, I'd really love to move out of state but being broke I'm not sure how that will work out. Even if you have a job in state but not in SLC, please contact me. When I can start: May 2011 (wish I could start immediately, it's a long story) Requirements: Since I'd like to be full time I'm hoping to get at least health insurance. Can be reached via: This thread, email at greenpuddin00 at gmail . com, or my AIM greenpuddin00

Green Puddin posted:What I'm looking for: Any sort of entry level job period. I will do help desk (even if it's people calling in), delegated administration, whatever. It's not exactly what you're looking for, but my company (in reality, me and a friend) are looking to employ people to act as local phone/technical support providers to cover the times when we would be unavailable (or when our American clients expect an American accent to answer the phone). It wouldn't be full-time (or even part-time), but more a case of us paying you to answer the phone when it suits you (so no-one would be "on call" as that would just be unreasonable). I don't know what level of demand our clients would have, so I really can't say how much it would pay or how often the phone would be ringing. If there was a support incident it would either be them complaining that the service was inaccessible or trying to figure out how to accomplish a task within the software, I'm not forseeing any cases where the software would be "broken". If anyone's interested can they PM me or post a reply in this thread? Ta!

Hawkline posted:Job Title: Messaging/MS Exchange/Desktop Monkey person I got a couple of really solid up-and-comers in the IT world to submit resumes for this position, but management wasn't willing to take a risk on someone without Exchange experience and ignored my recommendation that a hungry, organized worker would help us more in the longrun than an Exchange admin flunkie who would be willing to work for our comparatively low rate. So if you have some Exchange experience or can maybe bullshit your way through a couple of technical screenings about rudimentary Exchange troubleshooting (and is willing to work for managers who don't listen to a goddamned thing), submit a resume! Please! They're getting closer to hiring this position in a different city which doesn't help me out enough personally and I think would be bad for our department in the distant future. It's not like I'm Googling "Exchange interview questions" and using Daniel Petri's pre-generated list of questions for the phone technical screening or anything here, or that my boss is actually a Domino administrator who doesn't get Exchange much at all anyway.

Anyone hiring interns? I had my interviews all fall through. Mainly because I'm looking out-of-state and I've exhausted my contacts with no success. I could get a job locally fairly easily because my classmates know my skills...but I need a challenge. My Quals: Senior level Computer Engineering undergrad. Will graduate May 2012 GPA 3.42, Major 3.7 1 year FPGA design, Verilog and VHDL 6 months PCB design with OrCAD Cadence (Capture and Layout), and Eagle 1.5 years Java development 1 year x86 assembly development 3 months of AVR C, which I'm currently teaching myself again with tiny85s and mega168s You know you want me! I'm that guy that people come to when they need a plan. I'm the guy that will attack a whiteboard and have a general solution for a problem within minutes.

Hmmm, I put some thought into where exactly an inquiry like this should go, or if I should make a new post for it or what... but I have a question concerning job-hunting and interviews. I'm an IT professional. I'll be job hunting soon. Is it really as important as everyone says to not have any facial hair whatsoever when interviewing for a job? Everyone always makes it sound like no company would EVER hire a man with a *gasp* beard. Even if it's trimmed and well-groomed and NOT growing down my neck?

I would say maybe this belongs in the IT certification thread, but not really.... I say as long as your well groomed it doesn't matter. Now if you have a very long beard and don't want to cut it, just make it look nice. I guess I always tell myself "If my employer discriminates on how I look, I don't want to work for them anyway".

This is kind of in reverse and hopefully allowed - I need some experts for consulting work and actual work from time to time. Could be remote but I really would prefer someone local. I am not a recruiter or anything, I'm the IT Director at a small school in Miami, FL. The school has a main and two branch sites, about 50 end users and sometimes up to 400 students. I'm the only IT resource and sometimes I need help, especially with the guru-level stuff like getting OCS configured right. (Just an example). So having explained that, I need to know if anyone is really really good (and available to help from time to time on a contractual basis) with the following technologies: Sharepoint - we have it, but don't know why. Show us how to make it work for us. Network Engineer - There are multiple sites, and it gets really bogged down sometimes. VPN over T1s connect each site to the internets (in some cases bonded) but still folks be gettin kicked out of RDP sessions every day. Dunno why. Also, Sonicwall OS gives me a headache. SQL DBA - I have set up merge replication on a database. Sites are separated by the internet. It's kind of sort of working. Please look at it, but only if you have done it before. Oh and we also need a SQL person to develop a reporting tool. General IT consulting - In general, it helps to have another person as a sounding board for big picture things. I've been in IT for 20 years. I'm senior, but I need someone more technically proficient than me, I have a paid EE account, they are hit or miss, Technet can be a godsend, and Google is great, however I need a real person to consult with at times. If you think you can work like this, feel free to email me: edowning [at] fei [dot] edu THANKS FOR LOOKING. Stares At Floor fucked around with this message at 15:20 on Mar 17, 2011 |

Stares At Floor posted:small school stuff Don't be afraid to start a new thread in here when you need help or want to discuss something, there's a vast amount of knowledge here and most anyone would be willing to help out a bit. I'm not sure if you're in a remote area or not, are you part of a larger district? In fact you could make a thread just based on this post alone where we could all recommend solutions. T-1's are expensive and slow, inquire with your local company (probably bell south) about some of their higher speed offerings. We got rid of a pair of bonded T-1's for a 10meg Metro Ethernet pipe and the cost was about the same believe it or not. Managed MPLS might work for you with no network engineer on site as well. We have a company wide DS3 MPLS from Verizon Business and it's expensive, but not as expensive as you would think. If you're in a more rural area there should be Fed Gov't programs to help with connectivity. Sharepoint is very powerful. The question is what do you want Sharepoint to do for you. Wiki, Document Repo, internal website, Sharepoint does it all and more.

skipdogg posted:Don't be afraid to start a new thread in here when you need help or want to discuss something, there's a vast amount of knowledge here and most anyone would be willing to help out a bit. All sites are in the city. At the main site I'm removing the T1 and moving it to the branch site to bond with the T1 that's already there. That should give me 3 MBs more or less at the branch. I've got a Metro-E pending install at the main site. I think that should clear up any bandwidth issues. I'm using the wiki part of SharePoint for my documentation however beyond that I know that Sharepoint can bring efficiencies to the school, I just don't know how. Balls, I don't even know how to go about asking the question. One thing that I'm curious about is how can SharePoint be a replacement for the file server? The company basically operates around the file server, and email, to a lesser extent. I have a nagging suspicion that Sharepoint can help us... somehow. I also would LOVE some certified Network Engineer to vet my switch and router setups at the sites. I just kind of followed the manuals, wizards, and occasional Google result. It all seems to work ok, but I'm sure it could be better. You know, I'm going to make a thread here asking for help with my SQL replication issues. It's worth a shot. If I can get this SQL licked that will allow me to get one site completely away from RDP.
