Hey guys, I'm currently seeking advice on how to get into the networking engineering work scene. I have been searching and asking for open positions since 2010 and have yet to land myself a job. The response I get was that they were after someone with background experience already.
Right now I have no idea what to do. I had been searching for 2 years after graduation, then had health issues that I had to get surgery for that made me unfit for work for the whole of 2013, searching for a job again in 2014, and now here I am.
I have CompTIA A+ 220-601/602, Microsoft 70-620/290/291. Completed IT Computer Technician, Networking, Network Engineering Level 5 and Network Systems Engineering level 6 courses.
I always hear that experience is what people are after and not to waste too much money on qualifications. I've already spent around 15k on courses and I feel it being wasted as each year goes by. Even the certs are old now as they touch on Vista and WS2003.
I've been looking into Computer Power Plus as they offer graduate jobs at the end of the course, but thats another 10k to invest in for an IT career.
Any advice on where to go from here is appreciated!
