Oversee training tier one support staff and providing tier 2 support for escalations. 4. Work with customers to determine the needs of their applications and develop solutions that would meet those needs. 5. Act as a liaison between the customers, engineering, support teams and project managers. 6. Plan and implement infrastructure projects and network design changes both locally and regionally, and in extensions of the environment to other locations.
What they like about Microsoft:
Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
