-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an ‘unofficial’ job posting from the future manager. Our company is finally growing to the point of requiring a dedicated help desk person. Job requires no particular expertise, except for the demonstrated abilities to: 1) Solve any problem: Every IT problem has a solution. You must be able to work independently and have the persistence to see problems through to their resolution. 2) Enjoy making people's computer work experience pleasant. Initially required skills include basic networking and computer software and hardware knowledge. (We are also looking at AAS candidates). The broader your experience and exposure to different areas, the better. Demonstrating good organizational skills doesn't hurt, either. What you will learn: Network management. Server management (Microsoft SBS Server and Gnu/Linux). Database administration. Application development. Security. Hardware selection and purchasing. End user software Applications (Multiple; Office suites, Gold Mine, Microsoft Dynamics, UPS Worldship, etc., etc., etc.). Tons more. Benefits: Listen, the pay is unlikely to be great. You get a good crew to work with (at least we think so). You will be salaried from the start. You are encouraged to demonstrate independence and initiative, which come with the flexibility of being salaried. Of course, the other standard benefits apply, such as company matched retirement contributions, health and dental insurance, blah, blah, blah. Our human resources person has all the gory details. Please remit salary requirements with correspondence. Interested?
