IT Certifications and Careers (Official Discussion Thread)

[Formerly Black Trash]

I have 2 network admin interviews coming up next week

I just asked for a raise at my job and got it

One of these admin positions is a junior and would pay less, but I'd take it if offered for the skills I'd obtain

It took me too long to realize just being a Network Engineer is dead

Yes
I getting rejected from internships and low paying jobs.

I'm honestly thinking about going into another career field.

I'm almost done with my degree at WGU (majoring in Information Technology),so after that I might see what else is out there

Dont worry breh - the first step is the hardest. You just gotta get your foot in the door then takes off from there.

Personally, only a couple years out of college and I’m make 140k a year for public sector. I recommend trying to find something in the public sector because private sector for IT doesn’t match pay with expectations + less job security + more annoying politics. I also got time to do my side hustles as well.

I feel like a damn dummy

Did a quick search and see all these Azure Remote Support positions paying well

I'm about to redo my resume and apply for them even without the cert

Hopefully I can get my foot in the door
