JOBOP -- Sprint Sysadmin Jobs

[Jeffrey Watts]

There are two immediate openings (must be hired within 20 days) in my
group at Sprint Long Distance.  These are REAL sysadmin jobs working on
serious Sun and HP hardware running Solaris and HP/UX.  The job would be
very similar to what I work now, with flexible hours, fantastic benefits
(annual bonus, stock options, stock purchase, etc), and good pay.  You
would be expected to be part of a team, and would be expected to be
on-call for 24/7 periodically.

I know the manager very well, and he is a really cool guy, very fair, and
very understanding of a sysadmin's life.  This is an ideal situation for
anyone serious about being a sysadmin for a career.  This is not a
programmer's job.  You will not spend much time writing code other than
shell scripts.  You must be able to work with folks around the country
over the phone, work as part of a team, and work independently.

Note that you must be _hired_ within 20 days -- I don't think you need to
actually _start_, so if 20 days is too quick for you that might not be a
problem.  These positions must be filled or the headcount is lost.

You need to have experience with administrating Unix systems in a
professional capacity.  I'm attaching the job summary from HR.  There are
two positions, both are the same jobs on the same team.  I believe the
salary range is like $35k-$55k, depending on experience and so forth.  
Don't quote me on that though.

If you are interested, and feel you can work as a professional sysadmin
working on mission-critical systems, please send me a resume VERY QUICKLY.  
Like tomorrow.  Also, call me TOMORROW and talk to me about what you are
interested in.  We'll see if there's a match.  Do NOT call me after 8pm or
before 10am -- my number is 785-550-5689.

As far as resume formats go, I'm a Linux user.  You send me a Word
document, and it'll look ugly.  Real ugly.  Here are formats that will
look good:

HTML
PDF
PostScript
AbiWord format (.abw)

Thanks,
Jeffrey.

P.S.  Send me that resume ASAP.
