    Confusion like this got me my current job. They were looking for somebody with experience in “Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager”, and I look that up and I’m like “Oh, that’s SCCM, I do that”. Go through the interview process they keep asking me if I know Endpoint Configuration Manager and I’m like “yeah, for sure”. I get the job. Day one, the other systems engineer is like “here is the link to our Endpoint Manager Tenant”, and I’m like “oh… Shit I have never ever used this”

    Well… Ends up Endpoint Configuration Manager and Endpoint Manager are two different things. Fortunately for me they are pretty similar in function and rely on knowledge of Windows and Powershell, which I know.

    So my first 2 weeks of work was taking a shitload of courses in Endpoint Manager and watching a lot of videos and learning it inside and out.

    2 years later and I’m an Endpoint Manager/Intune pro.

      90% of IT and software jobs are “I have common sense, know how to look up information, and my boss is intimidated by my work so they don’t question it.”

      I think white space should be used to represent basic functions too. For example 3 spaces can be used to sum two values while 4 spaces can be used to subtract.

    Make a UX or Project management tool with “Java” in the name so newbie recruiters look for people in the wrong department.

    They already do this, but this would make them do it even more.
