I'm curious why the number of jobs out there requiring Asterisk seems to be 
pretty low. After looking around dice, monster, careerbuilder etc, I was 
surprised to find no more than 3-4 employment opportunities with Asterisk 
throughout the US.
Is it really that low? There seems to be a job of opportunities for Cisco and other vendors solutions (duh... GUI's are good... duh). I wonder if demand will increase, or am I just looking in the wrong places?
I think that the Asterisk customer profile can shed some light on this. If you are a big company, you'll buy into an expensive system because you can afford it and rely on it. If you are a small company, you will look to Asterisk as an inexpensive way to set up your telephone system. You will also likely have staff that is willing to work with it and not enough money or need to hire external consultants exclusively for Asterisk. You may have a telecom or networking consultant that will put together the network and set up the system but Asterisk is a small piece of it. I'd say Asterisk is more of a "plus" in a job description but not a "requirement".
