Contract is through Teksystems.

Nortel is training wireline DMS maintenance and commissioners the wireless GSM side. Candidates must have strong DMS operations background. Not just testers. Any wireless experience is a huge plus, however, its not a requirement. Candidates with GSM /CDMA experience and strong DMS are usually the best candidates. They must be able to navigate within the switch, trace the call flow, and perform daily operational duties. On top of that, they must be able to teach people how they do it. They will be on customer sites performing OJT to Nortel's customer, so customer service skills and presentation skills must be excellent!

Nortel is need of certified GSM R4 candidates to commission and do knowledge transfer to customers throughout the country.

This is a one year, 100% traveling contract, with three weeks of paid Nortel certified R4 training in Dallas TX. Candidates will be flown to Dallas for three weeks of classroom training and two/three weeks of onsite shadowing OJT training that will be all expenses paid plus $15/hr during the 6 week training phase. After you will be assigned to an R4 initial testing/knowledge transfer position for Nortel.

This is expensive training so contracts that are ended early due to the candidate ending them for other contracts are subject to repayment of training expense.

This will be a nationwide traveling position, although keeping candidates within there home territories is preferred because it is cheaper to Nortel. Candidates must be willing to travel anywhere in the US. Pay rates range depending on experience and in home or out of home market. Bench time is included on this assignment. Bench time will require travel to Richardson, TX and working in Nortel labs during the downtime.

Candidates will take a twenty-five question test over the phone and have a phone screen with Nortel managers for selection into the class. There are 20 positions available starting July 10, 2006. Current Nortel contractors will not be eligible until their current assignments are finished. We will be running classes once a month until requirements from Nortel have been satisfied.
