I interviewed there for one full day with the whole team, in 2006 for a
j.o.b.

The guy looked at my resume and saw the projects that I have been fortunate
enough to work on.

He basically told me, "You are going to be doing all this stuff. You are
going to be lighting ports on 3550's, troubleshooting printer connectivity,
etc, installing switches with a pre-decided config by a different group of
BofA engineers from Charlotte, NC"

I pretty much blew out of there...

So, yea, stay sharp. Don't become a CCIEASAURUS!

technology..and what is actually being implemented?
