Here's a short list of his skills:

SUN Solaris from 1.1.4 through to 10 (beta), core skill so can do anything from add a user to change a backplane on a V880, build custom jumpstarts etc etc, Weblogic 5.1->8.1 Admin, builds, troubleshooting, Checkpoint Firewall NGFP3 Trained (not CCSA though). All the usual Web platform skills. Securing down servers is a speciality aswell..


Anyone know of anything going?

Veritas VM or VCS? or even Sun Cluster? EMC/SAN ? all these are in demand in the city atm. I've just filled my 2 vacancies, so unfortunately nothing available at the moment.

A couple of good agencys that I use (work for Investment bank in the city)

Optima IT -pushy agency but seem to have success
Alexandra Mann (aka AMS) - cheap agency, so they tend to have good success rate

Cheers. His main broblem with banks is that for some reason they won't touch him cuz he's got no previous experience working for banks...
