We are looking for a Junior IT Support Engineer at the moment
http://www.essencedigital.com/careers/current-vacancies and I am looking
for someone with amazing fault finding skills, someone who see's the matrix
as it where. Knows the 7 layers of the OSI model inside out and uses them
to solve problems.  I dont expect people to know how to fix everything,
searching Google is for that. The key is knowing what the problem is in the
first place.
