    just got back from a job interv where i was simply told that they prefer someone only working towards MCSE as it is cheaper for them :)

    Congratulations and well done on getting this job!

    With reference to them saying "cheaper for them" - well this is an invitation at some point to ask for training say early next year once you get settled in ...:twisted:

    To start with see if they will give you time to study a few hours during the week as you are paying for your own course.

    Also they should allow you to setup 2 or 3 testing machines in work lab that you can experiment with compared to their live network. You then can also use these machines as training computers with little additional effort.

    I wrote my own article at MCSEworld on training via work recently.....

    Once again best of luck with the new job!

    Hey bud,

    Congrats ! well done. :D

    Did Advent sort you the interview out or have you done it off your own back ? I've got to go and speak to them within the next couple of weeks - should be out for interviews then as well.

    Are you still on the 70-270 ? I am on 'go slow' at the moment, just got too much on !

    Carl :o)

    P.S. going to the 70-270 workshop on 4th and 5th of April if anyone else is there on those days?
