(Since the official forums is down for maintenance again)
Recently got offered a job at Airdrie (Thats in Scotland for the English who didn't know :P) for a tech support line, thought I would do it anyways better than sitting about doing nothing (although I don't need to work).
It turned out it was for VM who are grabbing tech support people for nights and the weekend, between the hours of 8am-10pm.
The test questions were a laugh on the phone.
What is the command for bringing up your IP address?
A customer wants 2 AV's running at same time is this acceptable?
Name brands of free AV's on the net?
What is msconfig?
There was a 5th one but it was easy I forgot it :P
So yeah do you think India has finally been given the chop it richly deserves?
Or is it some sinister plot?
EDIT: Forgot the extra info...

Doesn't say its VM but it is..
See that lovely 14.5k DOE salary, well turns out a couple of people who I know who was also offered a spot for the weekend anyway. Was offered 4.5k a year for 15hrs at the weekend.
Now if you get the old maths brains out, that is nowhere near the 14.5k that someone like my friends with their experience would accept.
It is like they are just trying to get anyone for cheap and the 14.5k is just a tease to get anyone interested but have no intentions of paying it :P
Damn if those 5 questions (still forget the other one) are anything to go by, anyone with A+ or even basic PC knowledge can get a job :P
