Hardware Hub Networking

I'm thinking about applying for this position at a aluminum factory for an "IT Network Enthusiast"

now I don't have a bachelors degree, hopefully they won't touch too much on that topic

what are some things I'd need to know how to do and what you did frequently as a system admin?

I did take a few cisco classes in highschool but nothing too deep in networking
I know hardware in and out, its be the software portion

From the looks of it, it mostly deals with windows, which is good, linux isn't my friend

Well I'm kinda a professional....

The Cisco stuff you'll want to learn, you can pick up a book and learn most of what you need to pass the interview in a few days.

In all honesty, most IT jobs don't really need that degree, it's more of a formality, as long as you prove you can do the job, you'll be fine.

Just my two cents.

I work for a school district, your mileage may very with how the company works.

are cisco switches/routers really all that different from regular ones?

and I figured it'd be useful to learn about VoIP in detail

They can be. It depends on the one's in service.
