I would contend there are a few more CCIE's than JCIE's and in a real
world large company hiring situation you face a few possible scenerios:
1. The commitee to revise job requirements has not met.
2. The manager requesting the position through HR is clueless.
3. HR is clueless, and just cut-and-pasted a similiar job ad.
4. They know exactly what they are doing, and the person they
really want to hire happens to be CCIE, and they figure he/she
can read the Juniper manuals until they get the JCIE.
By the way.. I am thinking of using a Juniper M5 for a channelized DS3
interface to a local CLEC (serving data to frac T1 customers).
Any good/bad comments?
As for getting the JCIE because they are rarer.. that's just wrong.
Get what you need and can use where you want to live.
