Future for noc engineer from Jack prabha's blog

Central point for monitoring a network...this job can include responsibilities that a CCNA could do such as troubleshooting/repair. Usually though any new additions and major changes/upgrades are done by a Network Engineering department. Every place is different though...you should be able to get a better feel for your responsibilities from the folks that hired you. This doesn't sound like a bad place to start if you are new to the field. How much experience do you have? What did you expect to be able to do with your CCNA? Many places require new hires to work off-shift...through the night....is that the case for you?
