Teabag Dome Scandal posted:Do you think this would be a good position to transition from help desk to? My current job doesn't have much opportunity for advancement or expanding my role so skills are a little stale. I'm really trying to find something that has pretty explicit room for growth without moving laterally. I think so. It does depend entirely on your willingness to self-educate and take advantage of learning opportunities. If you don't have the drive for that kind of thing -- and not everyone does -- then you should probably skip this one! Some updates on what I posted previously... my cat is norris posted:Net Health is hiring additional positions. I'm STILL pestering recruiting about salary ranges on these open positions.

The Technical Project Manager positions are offering in the $80k range (and have been HURTING for good applicants, so if you're not garbage, you may have an easy shot at an interview, at least). Scrum Master is offering 85k - 95k to start dependent on experience. my cat is norris fucked around with this message at 03:14 on Aug 29, 2020 |

Thanks! My current company is paying me less than that, and we've been having trouble hiring good Product Owners at our rate so I'm glad for the opportunity. I'll update my docs this weekend and apply!

Better that than someone like Cavalry whose whole MO is to sue you immediately. I’ve dealt with more debt collectors than I’d like to admit over the past two years and some are definitely better than others, regardless of whether the industry as a whole is inherently predatory.

Thought I'd update things on the Net Health side. Most positions I'd posted previously have either found a candidate or are in the process of interviewing very strong candidates, so please consider this posting to be the most current state of affairs (as far as I know them, anyway). Product Owner I - https://recruiting.ultipro.com/NET1...51-8ce414418b05 The hospice product is exactly what it sounds like -- software built to support and improve the end-of-life care for all kinds of patients. This is less of a technical position and more of an analysis role with the power to say "yes, you did it, scrum team" or "no, you did not do it, please try again." Based in Alpharetta, GA but at this point our company is as remote workforce as it gets. Technical Project Manager I - https://recruiting.ultipro.com/NET1...58-3fe2ce396b3e Technical Project Manager - https://recruiting.ultipro.com/NET1...8a-9a6af3244f6d

Job Posting Who we are Sharp Business Systems (formerly ZLAN Partners, bought by Sharp around 2 years ago to bolster and improve their MSP business). We are an MSP primarily dealing with Windows, some networking and then random other things that clients will pay for. Where we are Our office is in Downers Grove Illinois, most of our clients are within a 50-75mi radius (honestly 50% of them are in Chicago proper), though some are farther, generally if it's another state we do remote only or possibly 1-2 days of travel, i.e. I have one client that opens new stores every month or so on the east coast and I travel for 1-2 days to set them up every other month, switching off with my manager, though with COVID things have slowed down. Job title Senior Systems Engineer (I think the actual internal title is MNS, Managed Network Services, Engineer or something equally foolish) What Sharp wants Being an MSP, for non-technical things, they want someone that can deal with being in a fast-paced environment, personable, organized, and detail oriented. From a technical perspective we need someone that has a solid handle on all aspects of Windows Server 2012/2016/2019, so AD, DNS, DHCP, file services, permissions, IIS etc etc etc basically if it's a feature we need you to know it. Networking knowledge is extremely helpful but not necessarily required, we do implement a fair amount of firewalls/switches etc but a lot of implementations are very simple since they are small businesses, most older firewall implementations are going to be Cisco ASAs and most newer ones will be SonicWALLs of some flavor and switching is kind of all over the place. There will also be SANs at some clients so experience working with them is a bonus (mostly HP/Dell out there I haven't seen any others). Basically you are going to touch anything and everything, but won't be expected to know everything out of the gate. We are doing a fair amount of Azure migrations (on-prem to Azure) so if you've got experience that's definitely a bonus. Most of our clients are using O365 so any experience there is also good. MCSE/Azure/O365 certs are especially useful but I had none coming in. Why you want to work here The pay is pretty good and the benefits are top notch since the Sharp buyout. If you're in a junior/mid-level position this could be a good jump where you will gain a lot of experience doing all sorts of migrations, some firewall/switch experience and just generally rounding out knowledge. There is a bonus system in place that can definitely make you a decent mount extra. You will not be micromanaged (provided you show that you are trust worthy). You will basically never go into the office (I live in Chicago and it's a 45 minute drive to the office). Management will have your back provided you aren't a lying weasel, so if a client is a jerk or tries to throw you under the bus they will lean towards believing you until you prove otherwise. Sometimes you get a golden ticket to really unfuck a client and are given a sizeable budget to make it happen, then you get to build/configure/implement a whole new environment and it's fun and works well. Why you wouldn't want to work here It's an MSP, so they will try to over work you (the bonus system plays into this). You will be expected to be onsite at clients pretty much every day of the week, once you've gotten clients and projects assigned, and some clients can be far (they do TRY to take into account where you live when assigning clients but that can't always happen). There will be lovely clients you have to deal with that don't want to spend money but want things to run perfectly etc. There's some annoying process stuff especially now that Sharp has really pushed for integration. Training on internal process stuff was kind of crap when I started so that was annoying to be told I did a thing wrong when I didn't know they had specific way to do thing. You WILL be expected to help sell services/things to your assigned clients and keep fairly consistent communication with them, so that can be annoying especially with clients that don't want to pay for things but want everything to be awesome. Salary Obviously based on experience/certs, if you don't have an MCSE they will write into your contract if you get it by X date you will get a pay raise (at least they did for me). Rough pay scale is 85k-105k, you can also possibly get more, a friend of mine just took a position at another company for 125k and they were willing to match that, so, yeah negotiate. PM if interested.

Job Seeker My experience: Currently in my first IT job as a computer repair tech for a company that recycles computers and donates them to schools. It is extremely easy, they made me a “manager” for 5 people within a week of me starting and I feel like I’m already overqualified for it simply by being a goon who was basically raised by computers. I have my A+. Previously spent 10 years in fine dining, eventually reaching the lofty and miserably stressful heights of Executive Chef (which is why I’m now looking at an IT career) so you know I’m efficient, hard working, loving fast and also a genius. Working on getting my network+ and security+ when I can afford it them. What I'm looking for: Whatever I can get that will provide better experience than stripping RAM and HDs from old office computers and pays at least slightly more than minimum wage. Ideally working with hardware. What I'm NOT looking for: Sales. In a perfect world, not customer service either. Where I live: Toronto (well, Mississauga but I have a car) Where I'm looking: Greater Toronto area, or remote. Doesn’t matter. When I can start: The first Monday after accepting an offer. Requirements: None that I can think of. Will look good on a resume I guess? Can be reached via: Forums PM or post in this thread and I’ll give you an email. abuse culture. fucked around with this message at 22:42 on Sep 29, 2020 |

Job Seeker My experience: 9 years of full stack web development experience, with about 6 years of using C#/.Net Framework for back-end APIs and services, and experience with many other related skills and technologies (Javascript, Typescript, SASS, SQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, etc). I also have squad leadership experience, including managing and assigning tickets to developers over the course of projects to their completion, as well as breaking apart and scoping projects with product management. Minor AWS related dev-ops experience, though not certified. As a hobby, I also have plenty of experience with graphics programming using OpenGL and older versions of DirectX (think DirectX 9). What I'm looking for: A full stack software development position, ideally also with a C#/.Net back-end, but I'm flexible and am down for working with anything. Greenfield work would be nice. What I'm NOT looking for: A company that is looking to re-write an old legacy application. Also would like to avoid any military associated companies. Where I live: Boston, MA Where I'm looking: Somewhere in the Greater Boston area, or remote. When I can start: Two weeks from an offer. Requirements: 120k-140k, with the caveat that salary can be considerably more flexible for remote positions (especially ones that let me escape from Boston). Can be reached via: Forums PM and I can send you my email and resume. MadFriarAvelyn fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Sep 30, 2020 |

Me: Veteran, nurse looking to make a job change when I’m out of the military. Education in unrelated fields (though I have a decent amount of statistics in my background). Self taught Python (mostly working with numpy and pandas) and statistical analysis, enough that I’ve tutored undergrads. Self taught Linux/ssh, though still novice there. Will likely have an A+ by the time I start. Have a security clearance though I’d rather stay far away from the government if possible. What I'm looking for: An internship or entry level job for exposure to the industry. Data related would be ideal for obvious reasons but anything from front end JavaScript or IT is fine, I’ll pick it up if it’s entry level. Where I'm looking: Norfolk area or Richmond VA When I can start: Spring 2021

Let's not get too carried away with the nonsense please. This thread has generally been pretty good about not having a bunch of poo poo posts in it.  If you have a suggestion, speak up. If you are looking for a job or have a job opening you want to share, speak up. I'll even allow some discussion about specific job postings! But that call for suggestions was not an open invitation to poo poo up the thread.

Maybe copy over the existing format for job seeker and job offering. That part always looked good. If people in different industries had advice on their niche, useful skills, interview tips, etc I think that would be helpful in the OP. I know as someone trying to pivot a different direction in IT I would certainly read the advice.
