Notes from RM :

This a Build role or the Cerner Scheduling application. Focus should be on Oracle/Cerner Scheduling Build and PowerChart. Not a ticketing system troubleshoot/resolve support type of role and it s not a Trainer type of role. So please steer clear of that and be sure the Build experience for that application is clearly seen on the CV.
