Those are typically low bid jobs and sourced by recruitment companies. $50/yr

The role of the Remedy Developer will be different. We have seen that over the

They want a BMC Certified Administrator: BMC Remedy AR System 7.5 or higher.
Most of us have the skills to take the test and pass it, but BMC makes you take
all the classes before you can even take the test. That's $1000's of dollars
just to get a sticker to put on your resume.

As stated in the job description, this is an admin position, and the secret

$40-45/hr. All of our certified/cleared folks are working with

Don't normally chime in on these but
Wow, $340 - 360 USD a day is very low (UK rates start at around £350+ =
$550+ USD) ... Security clearance can add a fair amount of value to that.
