"Everything we do as SysAdmins is based off the idea that we need to be able to make sure that everyone else is able to do their jobs to the best of our ability. Our measure of success is everyone else's ability to function to the best of their ability. I think that that's pretty amazing."

Systems Administrator at Western Governors University
in Salt Lake City, UT

"I love learning new skills and working with others in a team environment. Setting up systems from scratch, managing existing systems and working with others are all extremely rewarding to me. Once things are setup and in place, if there's not a lot of new projects or things to learn, it can be rather mundane doing the same things over and over every day."

"I love technology, I cannot wait to wake up next morning and start working. However it has been tough to get my career up and running due to our economic meltdown in Zimbabwe.

Systems Administrator at Diverse Systems Group

"What an amazing and exciting role to have in a company. You are constantly testing new tools for automation and administration. As an SA you are constantly in touch with security standards, keeping your assigned servers up to date. It's extremely rewarding being told an application update is on the horizon and successfully plan, test, execute the new version. As an SA you get to meet vendors and other subject matter experts from US based international companies. This job is a real thrill."
