Welp, I've reached the point where I'm just not going to be able to grow any further with the companies I work for (one full time, one part time). They've been great places to work, but it's time to move on for a bigger challenge. I'm a web developer looking to make that next step up. Hopefully there is a fellow Goon waiting in the wings with an opening in the Tampa/St. Pete area and a need to fill it. With me! My experience: I'm a web developer with ~3 years experience developing in PHP. Also have a little bit of experience with VB.NET and am willing to learn more! I also have experience setting up and administering both Linux + Apache based and Windows + IIS based servers. What I'm looking for: A developer position with the chance to learn and grow. I love this field and love what you can do when given the tools and the team to really work! What I'm NOT looking for: Help desk type roles. Where I live: St. Petersburg, FL area Where I'm looking: Tampa / St. Petersburg area When I can start: Pretty much two weeks after I am hired. my role at my current job is pretty critical. I really like my boss and I'm not a dirtbag, so I really would like to prepare him for running without me there. Requirements: Health insurance is a must (family man here), 401K. Can be reached via: This thread or at jmgolz AT gmail.com

Who are we? E-Commerce Division of a large retailer Where are we? Downtown Chicago IL, right in the middle of the Loop. What are we looking for? RHEL ninjas. We're the systems engineering team and we're responsible for 1200+ servers in our data centers, about 80% of which are running RHEL 5.3. Bonus points if you know AIX, Solaris, or Windows Server, but these aren't 100% necessary. I'm not going to put down that you need 5+ years of RHEL experience or a bachelors degree in any particular field. If you're good, we want you, but be prepared for a very technical interview. Please also be familiar with VMWare ESX. You don't have to be godly or anything but we expect you to be able to hop onto a VCenter box and do basic poo poo. What are we not looking for? People who need hand-holding. Self-reliance is crucial because you'll be on call sometimes and being able to put your head down and just figuring poo poo out is something you'll need to be able to do. How do I apply? Shoot your resume to matt@cidrick.org Anything else? It helps to be a huge nerd. Our department consists of a bunch of nerds that drink and play WoW together. Not to say that you won't get in if you don't play WoW (we have many that don't), but keep in mind the type of people you're going to be working with. Also, you'll be in the on-call rotation. Right now we're on a 6-week rotation so you'll be on call for one out of those 6 weeks. You'll have to put up with 3AM phone calls on occasion, but we're pretty good about comp time and work-from-home days so it's not like you'll be worked ragged or anything. Finally, Black Friday weekend is no joke. We go on an infrastructure and code freeze beginning in November, and EVERYONE is going to be on call the week of Thanksgiving. Be prepared to bring your blackberry and laptop to Turkey Day Dinner. Cidrick fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Jun 21, 2011 |

Who we are: Professional services company for the communications, technology, and digital media industries Where we are: Boston, MA and Overland Park, KS What we want: Two desktop support type folks, one in each office. The positions are listed on CareerBuilder (here for Overland Park and here for Boston); the responsibilities and skills/qualifications and all that can be found there, so I'll just give my take on the position. I've been working in this position for a bit over a year now, and in a nutshell, it's sort of a desktop support "plus"/jack-of-all-trades role. The main focus is end user support, a lot of which is done remotely; password resets/lockouts/setting up new users, software installs, troubleshooting hardware/software issues, documentation, and everything in-between. But I've also gotten to do server builds, done research and provided feedback on new technology we're looking at, helped with testing and implementation for some infrastructure projects, and other stuff that would probably be done at the junior admin level if we were a bigger team. You'll have plenty of opportunities to learn new things. Why you’d want to work here: Funny and easy to get along with coworkers and users. Independent work environment (i.e. no micromanagement); coworkers are always available and willing to help out if you've got a heavy workload or need to brainstorm or are stuck on something or whatever, but you'll be expected to take ownership of your tickets/projects and see them through to a successful end. Snacks and drinks in the office. Convenient locations (the Boston office is a few blocks from South Station and the Overland Park office is right off of I-435). Why you wouldn’t want to work here: I dunno, this is the sort of environment that fits my personality, so I really like it here. If you don't like getting your hands on a bit of everything and prefer to focus on one area, this probably isn't the position for you. Ditto if the bit above about the independent work environment terrified you. Compensation: Salary. Health/dental/vision benefits, HSA/FSA, 401k Contact: Apply through one of the CB links above

If the help desk/NOC wants to hire me longer than a contract, that's awesome, but I'm not expecting anything until I get experience. Not looking for: As long as the contract isn't under three months.

My experience: Fresh out of college with a Bachelors in Comp Sci, one internship and a published paper on databases. Worked mostly with Java, C (some C++), MySQL and a variety of software development tools. What I'm looking for: Something in software development ideally. What I'm NOT looking for: Help desk sort of stuff Where I live: Tacoma, WA Where I'm looking: The northwest, generally in or around Seattle When I can start: ASAP. I am currently unemployed Requirements: Enough money to live off of, please. Can be reached via: fabian.jcorrales - at - gmail - dot - com. Since I'm still fairly new to this and this seems like a good place for it: A lot of places ask for software developers to have experience, but seeing as how I was getting a degree I don't exactly have a whole lot of that at the moment. Fresh out of college, are there any keywords I should look for to get my foot in the door? Will I have to do less software development and more general IT stuff just to get experience on my resume? It seems like some weird catch-22 where everyone wants an experienced applicant, but I can't seem to find anyone willing to take a rookie to get that experience.

Misogynist posted:Networking is super important -- some number of years ago I was able to convince the right people at a local Linux User Group that I was qualified to be a senior Linux admin over 750 machines, when my actual non-Windows professional experience involved managing a Debian Xen host and three FreeBSD servers. I credit my career to that position. I got hired as one of three "senior" systems admins at a datacenter because I knew a guy who helped me run a small hosting business with a total of two cpanel servers back in 2001-ish. I definitely credit my career to that person. Unrelated and kinda counter to networking. I have a friend who we ended up hiring about 6 months after I started. He was working at a 7-11 behind the counter when my coworker met him. They started up a conversation because my coworker noticed he was wearing a linux T-shirt. They setup an interview and he was hired within about a week of them meeting. He quit a while after I did and now he works as a real senior systems guy at DirectTV and he makes as much if not more than I do. edit: Also I'd like to note, this first real job in the industry I was working 10 hours days 6 days a week and making about 1000 dollars a month... it was a terrible job but I'm glad I got in the door and was able to use it to get jobs in the future ElCondemn fucked around with this message at 03:11 on Jun 30, 2011 |

I know a few of the DirectTV admins by name, they've all been a little crazy so far - one particular guy does not start a phone conversation with a formal greeting, he just starts talking about the reason he called. I also got my foot into IT by networking, a person on this forum got me an interview and had sent me a review of a lot of the technical questions they'd ask me on the interview, 5 years later I'm a network engineer woowoo
