Job hunt! Need your help!

FreedomKJ · **Posted:** Fri Aug 26, 2005 7:26 pm

I parted ways with my employer this afternoon and I'm now in need of a job. I thought it would be good to post here since we have so many members.

I'm primarily looking for a job with a defense contractor doing communications, and preferably in Texas, but I'll gladly talk to anyone who wants to make an offer.

I'm former active duty Air Force, now a Reservist. In the military I'm a 3C251 (Communications-Computer Systems Controller.) We deal mostly with long haul high bandwidth trunks, but also do some local networking stuff as well. I have a lot of experience with cryptos (KG-84, 89, 94, 95, 75, 175, 189, KIV-7, 19, etc.)

My civilian job was with Rackspace Managed Hosting where I built, configured and maintained web servers for a great number of companies, both large and small.

My resume is available here.

Thanks everyone!

Not a bad thought to post on the board. Hope everything goes well with the job search.

I've been trying to decide when my last day was going to be for a while now, but I wasn't specifically planning on today. They didn't pay quite what I needed and my schedule (because of Reserve duty) was becoming an issue as well. There were other things, but I'd rather not get into them.

And no, hopefully I won't go back to posting all day long, as I'd like to find a job SOON so I can continue to own my Jeep.

Pepper: Thanks for the link, I'll be sure to take a look.

I can check around at my company. We are Titan Corporation, defense contractor just purchased by L3. We do a lot of communications work here, along with integration. If you email me your resume I will send it to the folks at HR, although we are located in San Diego... Let me know, but don't get your hopes up... James
