my job title is information system technican

my primary function is helpdesk support. other functions include backup admin / log reader and what i would like to consider sys admin / engineer.

a. Since I'm IT, my job revolves around computers. Build, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot. When my users need IT work done, they call me. I'd say 98% of my work is done on a computer. Occasionally, i have to call someone for help, information, or to purchase products. I also have to work with printers as well.

b. A+ with at least 2 years experience with a corporate network.

c. HS Vo-Tech class named Computer Systems Technology and Assoicates degree in Computer Network Engineering. But the thing that helped me the most is experience. I've been with the same company for 4+years and I like to think I know how everyone does their job or what they need to process work. You need to know how the computer and its applications work inside and out for my job.

I always anticipate problems in my line of work. But, I always troubleshoot until its fixed or at least find a workaround.
