as I am looking for a GIS Analyst. Preferably, the candidate must have a degree in Computer Engineering or BSc in Geography, Environmental, and Cartography and have a Masters in GIS and a 5+ years experience in oil and gas industry is necessary. Do not look at me I did not draw this job descriptions up our HR did. I just told them that I need someone who could withstand the rigorous daily grind on the computer.In addition, yes he/she can pick any color of blackberry he/she wants, heck! We even have pink ones.
Follow Ups:
Whew! I assume GIS stands for Good In Sandwiches. I hope HR listed weight gain as one of the occupational challenges.
why do you think I have the propensity for coming with excellent images on my post eh? I have you know our VP once told me that “always hire people who are smarter than you”. I am just following his advice here.You are right they do not grow on trees although some of them do hug trees, have you ever interviewed an environmentalist.
Honestly…. You would be surprise that candidate with the same credentials do exists here. I just interview a person who has 3 degrees plus masters as the matter of fact out of the 20 applicants that applied for this job 90% have masters in GIS and 100% have 2 degrees in engineering and science discipline.
I am looking for the right combination between their credentials and experience but most of all what matter most to me is their personality. As you know the reasons, we usually let a person go not because of incompetence but because of their flying off the handle cases.
.....I’d love to hire someone smarter than me to help out around the place but everyone smarter than me isn’t dumb enough to work for me.Oh, could a GIS assistant work from Australia?

as long as the vegemite sandwiches are made from the rack of lamb. Do not forget to hold the mint.
Some vegemite in the gravy is yummy yummy too.Smile
I like gravity defyingSmile
I find that quality supercedes quantity.
But when I was a lad I am sure I would have added a third smile. I liked three when I was a lad. d:o)Smile
No fun at all. And I am a believer in hiring really smart people, but have found they are often hard to find. Sometimes really smart people do the dumbest things.
pre-requisite aside I find that your demeanor falls into that same category that's what I am looking for in a person to be working with. I am not sure if I am being condescending however, you have to decide that for yourself after dealing with you, here in central since 2001 that is my assessment.
I tend to fire myself at least once every week.
In my case I fire myself every morning to starts the day.
