Raymond,
I do not feel age should play a role here. However the fact that she
only has 2 years of experience should be balanced in. The CCIE certification
recommends 2 years of experience. I know 20 year-olds with only their MCSE
that are making $45/hr or slightly more for consulting. Granted these aren't
long term contracts(1-3 months). I think that this person should be
evaluated objectively. Look at what experience that they have does it fit?
The CCIE is still a powerful credential, especially if the woman spends
every day living with another CCIE. $45/hr for a CCIE as a consultant -
awfully low for short-term -- $45/hr for someone with 2 years experience - a
little high -- As for the third criteria you mentioned, it shouldn't factor
in. Maybe their maturity level could be, as with any age, but if you are
considering offering the position to them you must have already determined
they are responsible enough. Just my 83 cents worth. :)

John,
Quick question to you and all hiring managers... suppose there was a 20 yr
old young woman who is a CCIE after being in the industry only two years...
should she be offered less than 45/hr if she was a consultant? BTW... this
woman exists because I spoke with her husband who is also a CCIE.
Any feed back would be highly appreciated.
Regards,

There isn't really such a thing as a paper CCIE since you can't pass just
from books. But, there is what I call lab rats. Those are the people that
get lucky enough to pass after doing all thier studying on a home lab and/or
attending all the Cisco training courses. I would never hire a lab rat as
they disgrace the program.
