Re: BSS Engineer

Thanx. Your links helped me a lot.
Especially "The ability to work extraordinary hours as needed is a MUST, i.e. nights , weekends and holidays. Perform on call duties on a rotational basis." One last question : They pay 900-1000 Euro in my country. For the responsibilities , and work hours... do you think that it worth it?

Re: BSS Engineer

Depend in what country you are. For example in US/Canada 1000$/month means nothing. In Western Europe is almost the same.
But for an Eastern European country is not so bad. Probably the same for some Asian countries.
For a BSS Engineer to work shift-hours is something normal.
