See if Cyrus One is hiring. I know they've been expanding their staff, since they've opened up more of their data center.

Im guessing you didnt get a call back. Our recruiter gal quit... try submitting your resume again if you can. If not, PM me your name and which job you applied for and I will talk to the manager of that department.

I know you said you would like to get in as a data center tech but I was just talking to our CSR manager and they are looking for 6 people NOW (day and night shift... day shift goes FAST).... would you be willing to start there?

I did tell him about you and he does want your resume but I wanted to make sure you were ok with that position first.
