Do you ever use your smartphone, cable TV, WiFi, or NetFlix account and wonder how the giants in the communication industry like Verizon, AT&T, Amazon, Google, Telefonica, Telstra, SingTel, Telus, Bell, Rogers, and more – possibly sustain the high-speed networks that power our daily lives? Think you’ve got what it takes to work on these networks and keep up with their demands or – even better – get ahead of their next challenge? Be a true partner? If so – read on.
