@Jack M That's one of my concerns. The gentleman previously worked as a NetSuite consultant directly at NetSuite on their implementation services team, I don't think he's been an NS admin before, but he's trying to get out of consulting. Senior management here thinks it's worth an interview, and it may be, but I don't know how much consulting translates to admin. The guy is SuiteFoundation certified, so at least there's an assumed minimum of knowledge.

Did you just assume the gender of "dude"?
