This post will have about 1000 noobs trying to break into the IT market with their *I can restart a computer, can I work in IT?* fantasies.
Awesome, congrats!
Nice, I hit that at about 10 years and after being laid off I’m finally back up to it.
Congratsssss!
Congrats! Can you tell us what the interview process was like for the job you landed? Did you have any rough interviews prior to this where you knew you weren’t getting the position before the interview was even over? In those situations, looking back on it, is there anything you would’ve done differently? Do you have any insights for people who are still trying to land a job in the field?
This is the only way to get a job without a degree nowadays. Have a shitload of experience which you could gain back in the day. People in this sub tend to BS about how degrees don’t matter, but the reality of it is that most employers have systems in place to sort out candidates with no relevant degrees, so you have to be extremely lucky to even have your resume reviewed by a human.
Congrats!
Wow nice congrats. You deserve it.
I just had a question, how can a person who never worked in tech able to get a job? I’m currently in community college but I’m still unaware of what to pursue. I was thinking ultrasound tech in healthcare but I don’t think that’s a good path. I thought maybe i.T would be better..
Congratz

Congrats buddy, very happy for you
Congrats! Enjoy the new position.
Recruiter hit me up this morning, waiting on a response myself!
Just posted myself wonding how the heck does someone without a college degree move up out of the IT Support Specailsit role. I didn’t see your post until now. I have 10 year experience too overall but not admin though and Sec +. Did you find sec + or ITIl V4 foundations help you more and what did you move to may I ask? I’m making 55k on a IT Secialist 2 role and not sure how to break out to the next step without a degree.
Congrats BTW!
Congrats
Congrats stoked for you! Question, I have a degree in comp science but someone mentioned sys admin as a route. I am in help desk now and it’s ok don’t know if I’ll get a ton of opportunity to do scripting or Linux stuff. My question is would I be better of just jumping into a sys admin role? Or should I gain experience as a desktop support first? Seems like I’m not getting a lot of sure pathways to sys admin or anything like that
Congrats! Currently working IT support. Have any good tips to make the transition to maybe a jr system admin role?
