I have just applied for a Support Analyst role

The job involves support of 300 PCs and 8 Windows 200/2003 servers, support of MS office, SQL server 7.

Remote support and procurement of IT hardware and support of software builds.

I am not sure wether I will be even given an interview as I have no commercial experience in support but I have asked that they consider me as I am a quick learner and have good knowledge of what they are asking.

They also asked for what salary I would expect (apparently this company pays well) I told them what I am on now and asked 1k more.

As I have said I doubt I will be considered but I can only try.

 

Cheers Sparky

I really hope I get a shot at it as its been the 2nd IT job advertised in the local paper since March.

I live in an area where manufacting and Farmer are the main jobs.

 

No they didnt give any info on why they want SQL 7, the company is a manufacturing co so I am not sure why the would.

 

Good luck mate

 

Its a company the produces packaging from aerosols to bottles etc maybe the SQL is for some sort of automation process

 

Good luck fella

Regarding SQL 7, it may as you say be a manufacturing process app, but its equally likely to be a distribution/inventory/tracking type system too. A lot of places grew from a system bodged on an early version of Access (95 or even, in one place I worked, v 2.0!) in the mid-nineties into a fully-fledged SQL Server version and haven't seen the need to pay for an upgrade, since it still does everything they need.

Hope you're successful!

 

My only SQL experience is using it with Oracle to create databases and that was 10 years ago, I am not sure what SQL server is like. Although I would imagine the command structure hasnt changed

 

Good luck GB.

 

cheers mate
