Looking to hire: Senior Windows/ESX sys admin

[bump909]

Man, I feel like I only come here to hire.

Anyways, I don't believe this has even been posted yet at my company, but my boss gave me the ok to start looking. We're need to hire another senior Windows/ESX sys admin. If you're that person and you need a job/better job/different job, please send me a PM. You'd be working mostly out of Wellesley, MA and sometimes Everett. Plus, you get to work with me.


Thanks,
Jon

I thought we had a bunch of IT guys on here. No one needs a jorb?

I'm an IT guy with plenty of ESX practice, but I'm in the wrong state.

PM sent.
