here’s the AD im responding to http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/sad/1106300052.html

Hello! My name is Nick Franklin and I am responding to your craigslist ad for an IT Support Specialist. The thing that really caught my eye from your ad was not the title; it was the “jack-of-all trades” statement as that is what I have always considered myself to be! Reading further only added to the excitement as line by line I read about the perfect job for me!

I currently work part time for a small startup IT/Customer support business in Seattle called In City Networks, LLC. I have a great relationship with my boss and my clients but the business is on the back burner right now and we are not actively acquiring new clients so there isn’t quite enough work to pay the bills. However, I love the job. In City Networks is similar to Best Buy’s Geek Squad, we provide Hardware and software support, peripheral installation/support, we even help setup home theater systems. And all of our services are provided remotely or in person. I am also familiar with documenting my work and using that as a tool to troubleshoot future problems and keep track of steps already performed so I do not waste time and money implementing steps and procedures which have already taken place. As I said before, I am a jack-of-all trades. Not only in the IT field though, have my skills ranged from automotive repair to cooking to just about anything! I am motivated to succeed at any task that is thrown my way and I do so very thoroughly with attention to detail. Whenever I come across a problem that I cannot troubleshoot on my own I put my research skills to work. I use all tools made available to me to find the answers to any question or solve any problem I may have. I also provide excellent customer service and communication, two things I learned while working as a cashier at QFC. Throughout my educational career I have served as both a great team player and leader. As a team player I do my part to make sure all that is expected of me is organized and completed on time. As a team leader I use my communication skills to keep in touch with all group members and to motivate those who may be slacking or having trouble.

I’ve covered some of my knowledge and skills but I’ll focus more on that now. Problem solving is not only a skill, but a hobby of mine. I enjoy the challenge and the praise after solving problems. I like to feel that what I do is important and helpful and this motivates me to work harder. I can see that this position is one of importance and I believe that I will perform well. I am quite familiar with traditional phone systems and less, but also familiar with VoIP systems. (Nothing a little research can’t fix!) Again, my main duty with In City Networks is to provide customer service and technical support so I am already experienced with remote and in person assistance, contract negotiation, and procedure documentation. Another thing we believe in at In City Networks is teaching our clients as we go and helping them prevent future problems. Bringing this skill to your company can definitely increase productivity over time by helping employees understand how to solve and prevent common issues. And finally, I am familiar with network devices such as AP’s and firewalls. I can easily research or be trained to use any equipment that I am not familiar with.

I am currently unable to finish college due to lack of funds but still wish to begin my career. Please consider my application. If the position is no longer available then I would be interested in an internship if that is something you can offer. Anything I can do to get my foot in the door because this job seems to be exactly where to begin my career.

Thank you very much for your consideration,
-Nick Franklin

Finding business solutions at a event called the “Consumer Electronics Show” can sometimes be tricky. But they are here. One of those solutions is AllWorx’ 6X Voice-over-IP (VoIP) “switch” for small-to-medium businesses. One of the 6X’s coolest features is how, if you don’t answer an incoming call, the call gets pushed out to your cell phone. If you don’t answer your cell phone, the 6X pulls the call back for pickup by its own voice mail system. From Las Vegas, TechWebTV’s David Berlind interviews Allworx CEO George Daddis Jr.

Hi everyone, I have a question we have a small business and when customers are late i call them and inform them that there service will be cancelled if they dont pay, i wish i could find a way to make the calls without speaking to them directly..like some sort of voice message informing them the info, I know my doc has a system where they record the message and call you, do you think I can maybe use a voice message recorder and when they answer the call just put the recorder near the phone? I know there are online services but they are very pricey, any ideas would be appreciated thanks

But not just any headset.

1. It must be bluetooth
2. Around -
3 The most important, it MUST have a mute button.

Does anyone know a good one to fit the bill? For my 360 I use the microsoft wireless headset, and it works great. I tried a plantronics 360 but it doesn’t mute

Thanks!
