New job..... hopefully
Well, kept this one quiet, but just come back from an interview for a systems admin role, fielded questions from the technical boss of 3rd line, what is WINS, how do you remote into an NT server, describe AD etc. and the normal personnel-type questions from the roles' manager - seem to go pretty well, if I don't get the job it definitely won't be down to having a bad interview, just that someone else was better suited.

Should find out by Tuesday AM

It's the journey that matters, not the destination.

Aims:
70-271: Dec 2007 PASSED!
70-272: March 2008 PASSED!
ITIL v3 Foundation: June 2008
Net+: July 2008
70-270: Nov 2008

Found out today -

Oh well, a bit disappointed as this would be an ideal role, but will continue on - should be another vacancy opening in this team soon, so may wait until then or until I pass the Network+, then I'll decide.

We've all been there at some point in time in our job hunts, personally can't count the times I've been turned down of a job offer.

Keep positive and keep plugging away, something more suitable would come when you least expect. Best wishes and keep your head high, but not in pride
