Well, I have only been with Intellinet for about 2 weeks now, but already I can tell that this will be a very enjoyable part of my career. The professionalism of everyone here, the positive attitudes, and certainly not least - the high quality of every consultant in the organization... it feels great being a part of that kind of a team.

Before I started, there was the occassional phone call from the recruiter (as well as others inside the organization), and the message was clear - not only was I excited to be joining the company, but the company was also excited that I was coming to join them. That was a great feeling, and one I had not experienced from an employer since... well, never.

And the welcoming attitude definately did not end when I arrived for my first day - a lot of folks seem to make a point to introduce themselves to new hires. Again - this was another first experience for me, having spent the majority of my career until now as an independant contractor.

I was also thrilled to be put out in a client environment literally on day 2 of my employment. Apparently, this is not normal procedure but there just happened to be an immediate need at a client where my particular industry background was of instant value - and I must say, it sure feels good to be useful!

Well, I won't spill any more beans about the hiring process for now - but I would like to point out that Intellinet is still hiring in Atlanta!  Now, getting past the technical and personal screenings may not be a pushover, but it is definately worth it.  We are building our practice on a solid foundation of talented people, and are most definately interested in bringing in more quality developers, BI specialists, portal specialists, and even infrastructure people.  If you are interested, please email me or pull me aside during one of the many Atlanta user group meetings - I would be more than happy to get you in touch with an Intellinet recruiter.

And supposing you do join the team, please remember to write my name down in that little "referred by" section of your application
