Network Admin Job Titles

[spidey07]

In generaly the full IT staff (everybody, developers, operations staff, engineering, management, and the guys who actually don't do any work but attend meetings gathering it ) is equal to the number of servers.

Some more, some less, but it seems to work like that. At work we have 320 servers (mostly unix), 150 routers, god knows how many switches. Yes, after a certain point a network becomes rather complicated and that point is usually around 1000 active nodes/IPs.

Believe it or not this is considered a "small to medium-sized enterprise network". You can get so much bigger. Especially in the financial/banking/healthcare industries.

So titles run the gamot depending on mangement style and company.

So Intermediate " " is not resume material?

With the economy as it stands right now, you want a 4-year degree + CCNA + MCSE job. Now companies can afford to hire people with this amount of credentials for the same jack that they would have hired just a CCNA for 3 years ago. I sure love the IT industry.

Job titles annoy me I prefer "jack of all trades of all things computer related"

My job entail the following (keep in mind administation is a loaded word!)

MS SQL Server administration
Network Architect (I handle the physical portion)
Tools/Utilities Programmer
Web Server Administration and Troubleshooting
Mail Server Administrator
Security Consultant
Customer Support
Sales Rep

blah... I'm underpaid

As the company has grown (from 4 to 6 employees), some of those jobs have been relieved (tech-support,sales). It's amazing everything
is still running
