[JOB] opening Mid level sysadmin & Jr. sysadmin.

[Alex Sayle]

Hello fellow perl people,

This technically speaking isn't a perl job but good perl skills are
always welcomed.

My $work is looking for 2 technical personnel,
a mid level sysadmin and a jr. sysadmin.

In short we're looking for people that would like to get their foot
into the world of visual effect or high performance computing.

I'll be honest with you, there's no silly money involved and you will
have to talk to users but the people are nice and there's a lot of
interesting stuff going on.

I don't want to screen people by HR buzz word bingo so if your
interested drop me a note off list with your CV or any questions
you have.

Here are the HR approved blurbs
