Per hour amount for a Network Contractor?

Question

I was offered a Systems Tech Support job. Its a contract job that lasts a few years and I have to give them a dollar amount per hour that I'd like. I'm curious about a figure that is common and fair.

Job Description: Install, maintain and troubleshoot network devices. Contractor will work with multiple vendors on firewalls, routers, switches and load balancer equipment. Contractor will be required to work on the on-call after hours support rotation. Contractor will need to be able to work physically on the devices for upgrades and repairs.

CCNA Required.

Answer 1

depends on how much experience you have. based on what you said, I would put down between $10-$20/hr. (probably closer to $15)
