IT Contractors

[CleoPele]

Hi

I am getting together a personal list of IT Contractors for SME Contracts and thought that UKBF may be of benefit to members that would like some extra work.

We require Contractors to have a very good knowledge in the IT Industry.

We dont require any specific qualifications or years within the industry as all contractors can be deployed within a variety of positions within the projects.

If you are interested or know of someone that would be, please PM me with a covering letter + CV where applicable.

Thank you

Stephanie

I know someone who may be interested...what kind of daily rates are you offering

 

[CleoPele]

Hi Dave,

I cant give you an accurate answer to that question unfortunately as I am looking for people to fill different positions whilst contracting and it all depends on knowledge and position filled by the contractor.

Ideal Experience / Qualifications:
MCSE / MCSA = Experience / Knowledge Equivalent

Could you pm me your friends cv when you have a chance please.

Regards

Stephanie

Don't base it just on MCSE's - I know plenty of MCSE's that look good on paper but who wouldn't come anywhere close to someone who doesn't have an MCSE but who has worked in the field for a while.

Thank you for your comment, I fully agree with you.

We do not have the requirement for a fully qualified MCSE/A although as mentioned above we require someone who has the 'Experience / Knowledge Equivalent' as we fully understand that alot of people in the IT trade do not have this qualification or similar and that the proof is always in the eating!!

Do you know of contractors that we may be able to use for work in the future?

BTW - That's a great status you have there A Microsoft Small Business Specialist ....What area of IT do you work in?

Regards
Stephanie

Stephanie....apart from using an agency it may be worth having a trawl through linkedin

 

[CleoPele]

Hi Dave,

I think I may be deamed slightly stupid - I dont understand how this website can help me :redface::redface:

Sorry could you explain?!!?!

 

[dave_n]

Stephanie...you can post jobs on there...and linkedin tends to contain more professionals....also the members on there inform each other of opportunities...especially contract roles....it also negates the need to use agencies as most of the jobs are with the company direct

 

[CleoPele]

That sounds excellent Dave, very much appreciated ...

It depends on the project - I do know plenty of people though

The MS Small Business Specialist is a separate qualification from an MCSE - http://www.microsoft.com/smallbusiness/partner/small-business-specialist-faq.mspx

I personally run an IT support company and we look after everything IT-related for a number of small to medium sized companies. We also install new systems for clients as and when required. If you want more info please PM me as I don't want to turn your thread into an advertisement for what my company does!

Cheers

Chris

Hi Stephanie,

I work for a recruitment agency called Spring Technology. I specialise in IT contract recruitment for business and technical focuses roles from administrators to programme managers.

If you are looking for MCSA or MCSE then i assume you are looking for technical support, technical specialist, or 1st/2nd/3rd Line personnel.

I do have experience working in this area. If you would be interested in discussing further i would welcome a phone call.

I hope to hear from you.

Regards,

[paranoia]

So people who might have
MCSE / MCSA only can fulfill this job?
