About the Presenter:

Muhammad A. Mirza completed the BS in Computer Science in 2002 and the MS in Telecommunications in 2005, all at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He has been working in the field of networking in the financial industry for over 6 years.

About the Talk:

Working in the financial industry is one of the most challenging jobs out there in the market. With the emergence of Internet, different types of electronic trading are conducted almost round the clock.

Network down for more than few minutes could cost a company millions of dollars and can cost you your job. IT plays an important role in making sure that the trades are running smoothly.

The amount of latest technologies that you can get your hands on is insurmountable due to each company’s resiliency requirements. IT encompasses diverse areas, but for this discussion, we will be concentrating only on the networking side.

We are going to start our seminar with what a student should expect when he/she graduates. What are these companies looking for in their network engineers and lastly how to ace the technical interview?
