A job I'm considering...

http://www.compensationtechnologies...eConsultant.asp

Could be an interesting change of pace, that's for certain.

edit: I know a guy who will pass my resume along. That's normally a good thing. 100% travel could be groovy, and so is the ability to live wherever I want in the country, as long as it's withing somewhat close distance to an airport.

Anyone want to offer opinions of this little gem?

I love how your resume is written. This makes it easier for employers actually, it's neat precise and goes straight to the point. And the job definitely matches your qualifications etc. I'd say go for it.

If it would help, I could translate Jaz's critique into the message of doom that is readily more accessible to people who don't have a sticky note saying 'clean your camera lens' on the wall their cubicle hanging slightly below a fuzzy animal of some sort.

No Java! And no experience with the desired compensation packages. Also, hoppy job history.

Other than that, go get em!

Java is syntax and syntax is easy. Java is OO and I already know OO. If no one understands that concept by now, then fuck em. Besides, I tend to think if a senior consultant is passing along a resume, that generally holds more weight than some weaksauce programming language requirements.

edit: Oh yea, and I pretty much did this same thing while at Hewitt, on my own, and on a huge mega scale. Thrown into the shitstorm and came out clean. Seriously, if they look at my non-java knowledge and make that a basis for hiring, they're morons. Anyone with a CS degree should be able to pick up java real quick, it's being able to crush all the important stuff that truly matters.

Fair enough. To me, when I run through resumes, if I ask for deep experience in something, it means there should be a deep well of trickery in that particular subject, not something that is close so you can learn the needed skill.

I guess it makes me a moron, but I have hired quite a stack of consultants that made my customers happy. Consulting is different from in-house work in that you really don't want to spend a lot of time ramping someone up. You want to get them slightly comfortable with the time billing system, the peculiarities of your offerings, and the expensing systems. Then, you want to toss them in front of customers and start billing hours.

I hope they take you on, it'll be a good experience for you. Maybe they have a program that would let you do some back end work for consultants presently working a large deal, and get you up to speed that way.

Good luck with it.

The Sr. Consultant who is passing it along said the java requirement was pretty weak. Not one of those "deal breaker" kinda things.

I probably should have been more clear on that instead of implying you were a tard. ;-)
