Can SysAdmin be a part-time job?

[JoakimR]

Background
My interest has grown for SN over time, because the solutions are really elegant, and I am at a point where I cannot stop thinking about getting involved with this platform.

To be honest, I really believe that there is no better way to get to know the platform better than by working with it.

Additional Information
I do have a good job already, which I love and I don't plan to leave it. I am willing to work with ServiceNow a couple of hours every week, but I am not sure if such working model would be possible.

Questions

1. Is it possible to have a SysAdmin who works 2-3 hours a day?
2. If (1) is possible, do I first have to get a certification before someone decides to hire me?

PS. I just started to get through the various courses available on the platform 😎

PPS. I have a deep technical background (including programming in various languages), and I learn fast.

Hi @JoakimR 

Questions

1. Is it possible to have a SysAdmin who works 2-3 hours a day?

Atul: Yes, you can do 2-3 hr job, but you need to see if anyone hiring for admin role, i will say learn ITSM and HRSD/GRC then it is easy for you to get the part time job. Try  on linkedIN/ upwork etc.

1. If (1) is possible, do I have to get a certification before someone hires me?

Atul: If you have certification that will be good , bcz it has been asked many clients and companies now a days but again not mandatory.
