 Show Me The Job Satisfaction--And The Money! |
|
By Joe Caponi
An old boss once shrewdly advised me, "Take advantage of the times you're a hot commodity--it won't
always be so." For networking and IT professionals, the time is now. Demand for these skills outstrips supply across the country, salaries are up and even the federal government is looking for ways to increase the number of high-tech graduates from American schools. This issue's "Third Annual Network/IS Managers' Salary and Job Satisfaction Survey" (page 88) looks at all these trends and what they mean to you. Online, you'll find the complete statistics
(www.NetworkComputing.com/903/903f2.html).
It's a lucky coincidence that we're also launching an online resource, particularly if you're one of the 25 percent of networking professionals planning on changing jobs in the coming year. In cooperation with Best Jobs USA, you can now search its database of thousands of high-technology jobs right from Network Computing Online. Updated daily, it's a terrific resource for job seekers or for professionals trying to stay on top of their game. Try it out at www.NetworkComputing.com/bestjobs/. Well, back to work. Our latest Network Design Manual chapter examines CTI (computer-telephony integration). Author Michael Sampson surveys the major CTI applications (including integrated messaging, real-time call control, voice-over-IP, workgroup collaboration, desktop videoconferencing and networked fax services) and the issues involved in deploying them on your network. The design manual home page is www.NetworkComputing.com/netdesign/ series.htm. Joe Caponi, jcaponi@nwc.com |
