Get together with your contact and see if you can get more details about the position, what specifically you would be doing, what sort of infrastructure they have, and so forth so that you can formulate a plan as to how your skills would specifically fit their need. If it looks good then go for it. Get in front of the hiring manager and show your worth to the company.Jumping on the IT blogging band wagon -- http://www.jefferyland.com/
