Landed Linux Sys Admin position

[thirdshiftdj]

Got it a few weeks ago. It's a great atmosphere to work in. For those wondering I have A+, Net+,Linux+,LPIC and Novell.

Advice:
Be confident in interviews. Stay cool if they ask you something you dont know. They don't expect you to know everything, but they look for good candidates that are able to learn. Touch up in areas you are weak in before taking the interview/s. Have fun during the interviewing process. They want to see your character and and also see if they can work w/ you. Last but not least, smile, laugh and just be you.

edit: this is my first IT job

Congrats! Ya i've found that while it's important that you know your craft, what seems to be more important is knowing how to find the answer (IE google, coworkers, etc).
