I think I remember reading something about that game. Isn't that where, when their team loses, half the fans riot? Subject: Re: OT - ugh! To: ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com From: kz2...@googlemail.com Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2012 22:38:36 +0000
I was told once being a Sunderland fan helped me get a job. Not that you US guys will even know about football. Real football, that is.

There are soooooooooooooo many factors that come into play during the hiring process. Tech skills, personality, appearance, education, communication skills….the list goes on. Sometimes something that both parties share in common that pops up in the casual part of the interview sways it. Hobbies, music, sports…. Hell, I landed a gig awhile back, where my boss told me he hired me in large part due to the fact that I had a modified Jeep (he owned one too). I was told by my new employer that what stood out for me was the way I answered the scenario questions regarding prioritizing and IT’s role in supporting the business (availability, bottom line, etc). They asked me very few technical questions, based on the fact that I’ve been in IT since the late 80s. Some I couldn’t answer, but I was honest and they told me that was another thing they liked about me. Sometimes I equate the whole process to blindly throwing a dart… Don GuyerDirectory and Messaging Services Catholic Health East, ITSS From: Andrew S.

Hiring "rules" are very dependent upon who is doing the hiring, the formal HR processes in the organization, what industry is involved, the geography in question, and the perceived level/degree of competition/demand for the position. There are very few hard and fast rules.ASBhttp://XeeMe.com/AndrewBakerHarnessing the Advantages of Technology for the SMB market… On Thu, Feb 2, 2012 at 9:49 AM, John Hornbuckle <john.hornbuc...@taylor.k12.fl.us> wrote:Well, I’m all confused.

I do not agree with the mentality, but I have heard the argument: "If they were any good, they would be changing jobs every 2-5 years to expand their skills". Depending on the environment, most companies change (refresh technology) every 2-5 years so that would force some expansion of skills. Another scenario is that you started in one role and changed your role, probably more than once in that 15 years. Sorry for the bad news, hopefully you will find something.
