Sure, what the heck. I'm currently employed, but given how slow things have been and the fact that people have been getting laid off recently, I'm not sure how secure my job is. I also got kinda hosed on moving to a potentially more secure position lately, so I'm kind of bitter about that too. My experience: Three years of tier-two support, about five of Windows admin/desktop support. Hold MCP, working towards MCSA currently. What I'm looking for: Windows administration What I'm NOT looking for: Sales, QA, Entry-level help desk Where I live: Tacoma, WA Where I'm looking: Seattle-Tacoma area, Portland OR When I can start: Given the right opportunity, immediately (w/ two weeks notice at my current job) Requirements: Health insurance, full time. Can be reached via: PM

brc64 posted:The job I'm currently talking a recruiter about is a W2 position. He explained that my paycheck would come from the recruitment company (is that normal?). He was also really vague about time off, saying that there is no paid time off, but I would still be able to schedule unpaid time off if I needed... Yes, the payroll situation is normal. You are technically an employee of ShadyTech Contracting Co., contracted out to AwesomeCorp, the place where you actually go to work every day. So while you are doing work for the one company, your paycheck comes from the contracting firm, or from whoever does their payroll for them. The no PTO thing is pretty common, unfortunately. Find out what the company holidays are at the client, and make sure you're getting paid for those same holidays. Another thing I'd be sure to pay close attention to is OT policy.

Kumquat posted:Greetings fellow Pensacola goon. I grew up there, but moved away almost eight years ago now. I don't think the job market there is so hot unfortunately, especially if you're looking for something part time. There's a large defense presence in the area, so maybe you could leverage your service experience to find something along those lines. I assume you're going to be at UWF? Go visit the folks at career services in building 19 over by the commons, they should be able to help you out with something. They should have listings for student jobs or stuff with local companies for people in your position. Best of luck and I hope you're not stuck in Pensacola for any longer than you have to be.

brc64 posted:I grew up in Evansville, so yeah, I'm pretty familiar with how middle of nowhwere you are. I don't really have a good answer on why durations vary like that, especially when there's a good chance of converting at the end. My experience with getting converted was actually the opposite; I actually got a pretty healthy pay increase and much better benefits after becoming a permanent employee. YMMV though.

My company is hiring! Come and work with us! Who are we? We are an IT consulting firm, and we work primarily in implementations of HP's and BMC's business applications. I'd prefer not to name names here, but I'll be happy to in a less public forum. Generally our customers either don't have the manpower or the expertise to build these systems out themselves, so they hire us to do it for them. The result of this is that we do all the designing and building of systems, and leave the maintenance and support to the customer after we're done (i.e. we do the fun stuff, they do the boring stuff). Where are we? Anywhere you want to be! The company is based in northern New Jersey, but almost all of our employees are elsewhere. I work remotely full time, aside from occasional client site visits (about once a month on average). Most of us are in the US, but we have at least a few people from Canada as well. No one else from out of the country that I'm aware of, but I know there's a possibility of some overseas work in the future. What are we looking for? I'm not very involved with the BMC side of the house, but for HP we are mostly looking for Server Automation, Operations Orchestration and Cloud Services Automation people. Network Automation and UCMDB would be great to have also, along with experience with vmware and basic Windows/Linux administration skills. A programming background is very helpful, but not required by any means. How do I apply? PM or email; username at gmail. Anything else I should know? My company's been around for about 20 years or so, and we're currently growing pretty quickly. My manager's been with the company for coming on two years, and our team has grown from about seven people to over 20 in that time. There are plenty of opportunities for us out there, so our manpower is the limiting factor. Pay's good, benefits are good, and we're just a pretty good bunch of people in general. Also, I am not the hiring manager, but I can help you get in touch with them. Full disclosure: if you accept an offer and stick around for however long it is, I would get a referral bonus.
