Hello guyz,

I was wondering if someone out here help me get insight of a sharepoint admin job.

what are the things to look for while applying for the jobs.

Or any kind if information realted to sharepoint.

I would really appreciate the help

And thank YOU.

Hello,
I am pretty sure there are tons of jobs in SharePoint admin in US as I always get email for it. I am currently in Canada working as SharePoint admin from last 7 years. If you need any help please send me email kundan at rogers dot com. By the way all employer will ask for certification. And you can learn sharepoint by ureself if you follow Microsoft published books. You need to built your own server . I am certified in SP 2007 / 2010 / 2013 / Office 365.

If you need and help feel free to email me and I can guide you to get ure certs


Thanks

Hello Daami,

Could you tell me from which consultancy are you taking training? . I am tired of searching for consultancy firm for SharePoint. If they are really good I might join that company and you might get the referral money. let me know, my email address is jptwt01@yahoo.com

Windows administration and Sql Configuration are two integral part of SharePoint administration. If you can master these subjects, then it will make your life easier as SP admin. As Kundan mentioned, if you can get certification like MCSE ,  then you will be ideal SP Admin. But don't get discouraged thinking that every employer will ask you to get Certification before they offer you job, SP certification is not a piece of cake and employer knows not everyone has time for certification. Good luck.
