Do I have enough credentials for a job like this?

LeBroke

So, I'm in the process of looking for a new job. This specific job seems like a great fit for both my skills and career level, though I'm wondering if I have sufficient credentials (i.e. resume, experience, certs) for them to consider me:

Junior Network Systems Administrator, Careers at Vancouver Film School

I've attached a sanitized resume.sanitized resume.doc

Penny for everyone's thoughts?

I would apply and find out by seeing if they offer you an interview. You will likely be working under a Sr. Admin anyways that you can ask questions and get pointed in the right direction.

I certainly think you're close enough to be worth applying.

I agree it's certainly worth trying, but why not gear your degree towards the IT field as well?

I applied anyways, just wanted to know if you guys think I have a chance at an interview.

My degree is basically 95% done (only need 3 4th year classes) and has been like that for a couple of years, just haven't been able to save up enough time and money to take a full semester off and finish it. Actually, I did a year ago, but had to drop all my classes for medical reasons. Considering now I'm slapped with student loans, it may be another 1-2 years before I can actually finish it. I'll probably change the actual wording to "with a focus in bioinformatics" or something. Technically not a lie, as I've done a bunch of proteomics, genomics and relevant classes.

Doing another degree, or even a diploma is out of the question for me financially. I may do an online diploma or master's, but not anytime soon.

You would qualify and should be interviewed.
