Not most of the technical experience.
Most of my experience is with linux/systems admin/infrastructure engineering.
I did hear GE is going to be doing a humongous recruiting spree for the business area they split off, can't remember which area. -

Two of those jobs require a lot more experience then my 0 years experience... The other two are contracts with one being very short and both of them being a good 30-40 minutes from my home.
Thanks for the quick look though. "It's Microsoft versus mankind with Microsoft having only a slight lead."

jryantech I would go ahead and apply for them anyways. Experience levels are really just guidelines, not hard set rules. If you can show them you can do the job then they'll likely overlook your lack of experience.Jumping on the IT blogging band wagon -- http://www.jefferyland.com/

Yeah I'll be moving contracts to the 2010 Census. Right now I'm a part of all the on going Survey's they do like the American Community Survey and wouldn't actually do the 2010 Census if I stayed in this position.
I will be a top level admin and possibly a shift manager for the Census. However I will be out of a job by 2011 but I'm okay with that.
