Any Network Admins need a job?
I just met an interesting gentleman at the japanese steakhouse I went to dinner tonight ( I love being on company travel... I get to eat out at some of the nicest places )
Well anyways I overhear this gentleman's son talking to him about some geek/gamer topic and being the social geek that I am I start asking questions and develop a dialogue (It also helps that I mix my wasasbi in with my soy sauce just like the father does... don't question, just accept the moments of synchronicity)
After finding out that I am involved in the tech field and that I'm a gamer, this gentleman asks if I know any network admins who are looking for work. (It turns out that I currently don't have the basic skill set he needs but I also know a lot of people)
The business is involved in setting up wireless networks on a LARGE scale, he and his partners have pioneered some technology advances that take it beyond "hotspots" and work on a definite MACRO level. They have contracts international as well as domestic to set up wireless networks on a citywide level or above.He needs a good network admin who understands setting up IP addresses on a LARGE scale as well as having problem solving skills and the ability to think outside the box.
to quote, "The type of thinking that a gamer does is along the lines of what I need."
He understands the need and drive to game, as long as it doesn't interfer when it comes time to work he is very accepting. Moving is not required but ability to travel is definitely needed in order to occasionally come to site to help design network to specifications... Other than that he knows the job can be done remotely.
I don't have too many more details I was more worried about understanding the basic fundamentals of what he needed and promised him I would help him go "fishing" for motivated gamer geeks
So if this sounds intriquing to you, contact me and send me your resume and I will forward it on to him. Obviously I'm not just gonna post his contact info and let him get spammed as that would be rude, but I promise to forward any honest inquiries on.
Oh and for those who are wondering, the company is based in texas but has contracts already in place for parts of arizona and new mexico as well as their overseas contracts (I know he mentioned Austria).
