I have administrators that work for me, well on their way to being developers, but I wouldn't classify them as a developers... yet.? Myself, I develop, but I still add groups, users, categories and all the other fun stuff that makes our jobs so much fun.? So a lot of crossover on job activities. ? ?

Emerging Health IT 3 Odell Plaza Yonkers, New York 10701 >>> [email protected] 07/22/09 12:56 PM >>> I would generally agree with what everyone else says, but I put it in the following way: If you are talking about a shop that builds custom applications, a Remedy developer is someone that can do everything the Remedy administrator role requires, plus development work and have a better understanding of log files and other aspects of AR System that an administrator may not know. When it comes to ITSM, the previous idea is thrown out the window, as there are multiple levels of administrators (e.g. application vs. ar system administration) and development is generally much harder so you can customize ITSM without breaking things.? As a result, being a "Remedy Developer" should include subcategories for "ARS Developer" and "ITSM Developer".

I'm going to open up a HUGE can of worms today, just because I can.? I keep seeing these hiring requests come in for Administrators OR Developers but not both, and every time I do, I think "What the Heck?" I've been doing software development and administration for better than a decade now, and devoted more than eight years of that time to Remedy, and I'm still not certain which skills fall into which bucket. So just for giggles, I'll start a list, and the rest of you add onto it.
