  • Eman Conde Eman Conde wrote Confessions of an iPhone junkie

    WORK WORK WORK! It seems like everywhere I look impediments have been erected to keep me from getting my work done. I have grown weary of the rules obviously meant to keep me from working my very contented life away. Sure some folks do need to be told to put their cell phones down and drive and others need to be told to sit in their tubs with toasters, but I think we are all wasting a great resource if we don’t try to refine how we can use the productivity tools we have. I have become an iPhone junkie!

    Move over job fairs. The recruiting industry has changed, and it's either do or die. Recruiters who once relied on faxes and job fairs to collect candidates and connect with hiring companies must consider social networks, blogs, virtual worlds, and other online media in order to survive. There's a lot to choose from, and the key is to keep it fun, share the experience, and connect the virtual and real worlds when possible.

    You have a great resume, bought a new tie, shined your shoes, cut your hair, taken out a few of your visible piercings and are shopping for a new job. Don't go into the job market even one in such high demand as CCIEs without giving your next steps some thought! When preparing for your job search you must take stock of where you have been.

  • Commented on Paul Negron - An Interview

    Narbik's reputation and Paul's as well are well established in this industry. Hard to cast aspersions on that fact.

    Not to worry Gert the mobile lab manager has never had this person attend the mobile lab. The person in the story simply fabricated his credentials. Thanks!

  • Commented on Innocuous or Unethical?

    I see many cultures in my travels and I experience them not just as an observer. I realize that we are also dealing with economic times which bring out the best and the worst in people. Add to this class struggles which band people together to elevate themselves and you have a tapestry both volatile and delicate. In the US I will not and cannot use the same brush to paint everyone with, but I can offer to help and to get help. Piracy is wrong, CCIE rent-a-certs are wrong and contracts that force IT talent to go without pay is horrible.Thanks for your comment

  • Commented on Will the Real CCIE Please Stand Up!

    The counterfeit document looked good and in some regions of the world especially emerging markets interviewers are not as knowledgeable about CCIE Certifications and the verification tools in place. But we are educating them one at a time. Thanks for reading and your reply my Danish nephew!

    I did not say she looked good! I am publishing a CCIE Flyer edition featuring the most beautiful women in the world. And in my business these are CCIEs. So look for the July issue it will have what I consider to be the best looking women on the planet, CCIEs!

    I agree a lot has transpired and it is unfortunate that anyone should ever have their livelyhood threatened by blogging or bloggers.

  • Commented on 2008 IT Career Survival Guide

    Paula,I like your 5Ks they are very accurate and all IT professionals should keep them in mind. Often when working, IT professionals are head down and focussed on delivery. We must remember to say hello to the other's around us and allow them into our professional network. As well as keeping the ersume updated always keep the professional network fresh.

  • Commented on VARs and ISVs not affected by recession

    As an international recruiter specializing in CCIEs and Network Engineers I can vouch for the 6th place career on your list. Network engineers are still in high demand because Cisco Channel Partners are still doing a brisk business. Project managers are another area I see hot demand for in this unusual recession. There is stillhiring going on and anyone retooling their careers should consider Cisco Certifications. Good article!
