Tier-1 employer and metro location increase applicants, but specialized networking protocol skills moderate competition.
Deep networking protocol and switching expertise transfers poorly across unrelated industries, so background sensitivity is high.
Explicit 5+ years requirement plus mandatory Layer2/Layer3 protocols and C/C++ skills makes screening stringent.
