Are there any openings next year for something related to computers/servers/technology?

I'm majoring in Computer Science and want to try to get as much experience as possible doing things like that.


Thank you.

Edit: Meant to type IT, not It.

IT usually doesn't have an application process per-se.

We do have a small interview that you have to do that is no big deal.

I'm not sure of our current staff situations, nor am I authorized to disclose any additional details, but if you email our DH, Dave Eckstein, at: it [at] acen [dot] org, he might be able to give you a little more information and get your resume/skillset/birth certificate etc.

Thanks for your interest!

Well, we have a very limited allotment of staff because they're just not needed. We have a total of 8 people in our staff and 5 of them work other departments at-con, leaving 3 of us to take care of IT related issues at-con, and with 3 guys we were more than OK unless something exploded (which, thankfully, didn't happen).

Like I said, get a hold of Dave Eckstein if you show a true interest, I've already sent him an email stating that MewChan was interested.

100% of our staff is volunteer. No one gets paid.

Give us all a chance to recover from this year, and check back later. There will probably be threads in this board for all kinds of positions in a couple months when we see what's open. :)

Requirements for IT staff:

1. Be crazy
2. Enjoy sugary drinks that have a large caffeine content
3. goto 1
There is no patch for human stupidity.
In order for there to be good, there must be evil.

O_o; That can't be Sybase, can it? It's definitely a SQL variant though (or perhaps even ANSI standard?). I don't mess with it enough to know for sure though.

We will announce when we are looking for someone. So far, we haven't gotten our bearings straight, but would like to get some new people before the end of the year, most definitely.
