Thanks for your reply. I wish the client would pay that much...would make the recruiting easier! But, they are the client and i have placd plenty of good SQL Server dba's in Richmond at much lower salaries than listed on salary.com.
They are not looking for a level III person, more like someone with 2+ years of experience. There is a 12% bonus, as well.
Thanks,
Logan Bragg

"Excellent opportunity to learn PS..."
Sounds like an OK deal if you only have 2 years under your belt. Take the 5 months as paid PS training and then go somewhere else for better $$. Forget the CTH option...not at that salary anyway. You would really be cheating yourself if you settled for that salary over a longer term.
