If you ain't helping I'm good, I think I'm close to figuring it out.

My job told me to get it and they'll reimburse me.

I was just reading the the cirrulculm for this cert: Google IT Support Professional Certificate | Coursera

This new Google cert isn't comparable to a professional IT cert, it's comparable to graduating with a IT AAS degree or undergraduate certificate from your local community college.

Hey bro, hopefully I can pick you and others brain about advice and best pathway to switch career from the food manufacturing industry into IT. I graduated with an A.A.S in Network Administration Dec '16 and its hard to find a entry level job in the industry.

I heard for some people that you dont want to get caught in the Help Desk trap. What you guys recommend the path to take to secure a IT job that is decent/good pay and all me to acquire the skills necessary to branch out? I was called about a couple help desk job since i graduated but taking those wouls have been a steep pay cut in regards to what im making now.

I understand sometimes you have to take a paycut when switching industries, but where talking 7-10hr paycuts in some instances.

Du'An Lightfoot put out this video today:




:ohhh:I didn't realize that you should look up the Indeed job listings on Glassdoor to find out what the pay is.


Yeah I use that in my industry. Alot of employees try to draw people looking to change jobs or dont know their worth if they have experience and omit purposefully alot of the time payrate/salary to not dissuade potential employees.

If the orange button is for downloading, I just get a pop up instead
It works for me, I tried on a linux box and it downloaded, I have ad-blockers (u-Block Origin) on my browsers no pop-ups but when I disabled it the pop-up redirected me to another site.
