    \n <\/div>


    <\/p>\n

    \n IT Support
    \n <\/div><\/h2>\n
    \n You may be asked to perform different levels of IT support depending upon the specific situation, circumstances and your current skillsets and abilities. Some tasks performed may include user (local and cloud) password changes, application password changes, patch management, backup management, etc. You may be asked to perform Level 1, 2, 3 or 4 support if it is within your capabilities and skillsets.

    \n You may be asked to filter help desk calls and provide basic support and troubleshooting, such as password resets, printer configurations, break\/ fix instructions, ticket routing and escalation to higher levels of support. You may also escalate to IT applications support or call for outside vendor maintenance, as needed.
