quote: I love comments like this. It's a highly skilled job and will pay off as a skill base knowlege is built. You cannot talk the talk and get to the top, you need something to back it up with. Employers will soon show you the door. If you can deal with your own company, contracting may be the way forward. Some of our contracters are on £400 a day who we use for Cisco stuff and another guy we use when we are low on resources. There is money to be made for sure!! I've started getting Microsoft Master Certified done through home study. Hopefully in the new year becoming VMCertified from taking a 1 week course at Remark in Manchester. Certifications are not all they are cracked up to be. Yeah, looks good on paper but you learn the content to pass the exam. Hands on experience is what you need!! | |

you can play around with esx too at home. Its possible to get it onto a USB key, boot it up and see what the enterprise version is too | |

I admire your drive to get the job SetH but lets face it you're hardly going to get amazing experience with VMWARE from reading shit at home or running it on your box. | |

There are some good docs on the vmware site - presume its ESX they are talking about. | |
