Keep on pluggin away with the interviews. A problem I have seen is that
clients regularly dont understand exactly what they require, and when they
interview their requirements change - sometimes to your disadvantage. Your
CCNA should open the door for you into this field - as long as you
understand your limitations and dont go giving it the big I AM as you have a
CCNA already...
Windows 2000 rollouts - yuck, no thanks.
