Hey guys,,
Just wondering...I still have a while left in school for all my training and certs. I was curious how everyone made out getting their first Networking Job...(ie: before they had experience)
I'm sure alot of you started out on Help Desk..which I'm sure I'll start out as myself. The only thing I'm worried about is finding my first job fresh out of school with not any on the job experience. I'm very knowledgable with it, but I'm sure companies like to see past employment within the field. I pretty much live and breathe computers, but my past employment is in the financial field as management.
I'd like to get into at least a Help Desk job even before I finish school if possible. I'm have the A+ cert and should be Novell certified by the end of this month. I know alot of you think certs don't mean a thing...I somewhat agree, but I'm just letting you know where I am. I begin my 2K classes next month. Once school is over, I don't mind relocating either.
So, care to share some stories? I'd like to hear some "First Networking Job" tales and advice on how to jump into the market.
Thanks guys.....
