Hey all,
I am looking to move from the U.S. (Ca) to Europe for a period of two to three years. Really I'd love to travel on weekends and see the world. I would like to set up a job before I go. I'm wondering how to go about this and how possible this is in the first place. I know the "Europe" thing is vague, but really at this stage there isn't much preference on where, preference will really depend on opportunity. More about me below because I figure this will effect my marketability and you might need to know it before having a realistic response. I'm looking to move in about a year from now so it's not an urgent thing, just sort of feeling it out.
I have about three years experience (five if you count a part time helpdesk that had only about 50% to do with computers). I currently work in the United States in IT at a school district. I manage everything technical (VMware, File/Print (DFSR), backups(Symantec), active directory (multi-site, multi-dc), group policy, DHCP, DNS, write scripts for us, monitoring and alerting, and security auditing. Essentially the only things I don't do are exchange (looking to learn in the coming months), Cisco (though I am well versed in a lot of it), and the management side.
I am currently A+, and an MCP (70-290, 70-294, 70-291) working quickly towards a MCSE: Security within the coming 12 months. I have a bachelors degree in business with emphasis in computer information systems.
