Re: [Sheflug] Jobs.




Define experience.....setting up & administering servers, workstations, user 
accounts, NIS, samba, nfs, etc, etc, sounds like experience to me - not 
industry experience, true. But the typical experince of a Linux enthusiast.

I wouldn't hold back from applying for one of these jobs if you are sure your 
skills are up to scratch...Better a rejection letter than to not try in the 
first place. Lets' face it, without going through the application process and 
a possible interview you'll never find out what they REALLY want. There 
really aren't that many people on the market with 2yrs plus of Linux 
experience in the workplace.....

In short....sell yourself, don't try to be the mythical being they advertise 
for.

Just my two penn'orth,

Paul.
