[LUAU] Somewhat off topic

Salary.com says Sr. SysAdmins make (median) $84,840...sounds like BS to me
:)

Of course, we don't have all the details (i.e., size of company,
privately/publicly held company, government contractor/non-government
contractor, etc.).  You might be able to get something in the $65-70K range
with a government contractor...but you'll most likely need a security
clearance before you're even considered for the job.

I haven't seen anything in the local papers for anything in the previously
mentioned salary range.

Good luck :)

Subject: [LUAU] Somewhat off topic


I'm trying to move back to Hawaii after taking a job here in the mainland
the last 2 1/2 years.  I had this job placement firm tell me that the cost
of living is 20% higher in Hawaii but the salaries are 20% lower then where
I'm at.  When I was there I was in the military but my consulting business
brought in more then what this person was telling me it just wasn't on a
fulltime scale.  So the question is, how does salary.com's scale for Hawaii
compare to real life salaries for a Sr. Sys Admin?

Aloha,
Mike
