IT Consulting company in Boston area seeks an individual experienced in IT support and administration. To qualify, you must meet the following requirements:
- You know how to fight the vulnerablilities of today's PCs with well-chosen tools, manual edits, as well as practices and procedures honed over time. Your years of hands-on experience battling spam, spyware, and viruses have brought you to the point where you stare up in the heavens and shout "Sweet mother of God, what do I have to do to get some peace, buy a friggin Mac!?"
- You have enough knowledge of Microsoft Exchange to despise its very existence.
- You possess the communications skills to deal with a variety of clients ranging from those with perennial PC Magazine renewals whose ask arcane questions ("Should I get the 15 inch with XGA or the 14 inch with SXGA") to those who shouldn't be within a 1000 miles of a computer ("I've deleted 5 programs and still get out of memory errors").
- When working to revive a 5-year old Win98 PII in the client's 9th floor headquarters, you instinctively look to see whether the windows in the office open.
- You have paid your dues handling cabling issues under users' desks. On at least one occasion you have had to stop, turn off your flashlight and cry softly.
- You enjoy activities such as router configuration, DNS troubleshooting, and scripting not because the work is fun but because these tasks can be done in solitude where there is no one standing nearby asking questions, always with the questions!
