in IT Jobs / Degrees
I was pinged for a interview today and but no title was given, kind of weird.

Here is what was discussed.
  • In change of maintence and upgrades
  • Refactoring Applications so they run more effeciently
  • Redesign an access database front end connected to a RDMBS backend.
  • Upgrade ticketing system
  • Review in-house applications to potential redesign
  • Review business rules and logic to make decisions on development of applications. If they should upgrade or not.
In the midwest what would you ask for per year?


Thanks for the follow up.

    Congratulations to the idiot who wrote that. They have successfully written a job description that actually doesn't describe anything. :)

    I would guess they are looking for a SysAdmin from the sound of it or a well rounded one. AKA: "Generalist".

    My Comments would be something like this:
    • In change of maintence and upgrades - Maintenance on what? Your BMW, Chevy, HP, Dell, Electrical?
    • Refactoring Applications so they run more effeciently Refactoring? Nice word dumb dumb...
    • Redesign an access database front end connected to a RDMBS backend. Ok, so you want a DBA eh?
    • Upgrade ticketing system - Meh, this is generic stuff regardless.
    • Review in-house applications to potential redesign More generic and typical stuff (Translation: We need someone to clean up this cluster$%#! we have here.
    • Review business rules and logic to make decisions on development of applications. If they should upgrade or not. Oh, you are still running WinNT? Yeah, you might want to upgrade there

    Think of the 2:00 a.m. test—if you were awakened in the
    middle of the night because of a network problem and had to figure out the
    traffic flows in your network while you were half asleep, could you do it?

    The phrase I hate more than any in the world.

    I have to break out the old Bullshit generator anytime I hear a client say it.
