ITS A FUCKING LOOP
Whats your question?
Move to a different state
certs get you interviews, not jobs. if you have no experience then you will get an entry level job with entry level pay no matter the certifications you have.
for IT work it goes experience > certs > education
/biz/ is too dumb to understand anything tech related
and Sup Forums couldn't care less about this because we already know that the market is fucked
meanwhile
>learning javascript and PHP will land you 6 figure starting salary
>learning ruby on rails and mongodb will double it
Certs / degrees are bullshit, complete waste of time, because they are about what?
>landing you a job
Jobs are shit. Your goal is to start your own business. World is run by people with no certs, no degrees, instead they have ambition. Fuck everything else.
I'm getting nervous. I'm in my last year of college doing computer science. I want to do security stuff, what certs do I need to get an interview. What should I be doing? I have an interview for a internship tomorrow, but I'm not too hopeful for actual jobs when I graduate.
/biz/ has a better attitude about programming since they know it's not worth it to try to spend too much time over autistic details or try to do everything by hand using some dropout lang that doesn't have a framework
Contribute to an open source project, preferably something low level with C and ASM. Or look for projects with vulnerabilities and patch them, that'll go miles beyond certs
yeah i know and its horse shit. i'm 27 and stuck with nearly zero experience. my a+ and rhcsa already expired. i couldn't find fucking work outside of working at a third party mac reseller repairing broken macbooks. started off as a "helper" for $8 an hour and then made my way to a glorious $11. wasn't to bad since i was 40 hours a week mon - fri. but now unemployed since they went under.
my career aspects now is working at an amazon warehouse an hour and a half away from here for $11 an hour. fuck IT. i should of went to college for business management because then i could at least be working at Honeywell jerking off to porn managing an IT department full of drones making barely above mcdonalds levels.
Fucking this.
Where the fuck do you live user?
I have a CCNP and a MCSA (no experience) and I can't find any fucking work.
I'm actually considering joining the military or air force or something.
Web devs really make that much?
yep
and you still won't be considered a real engineer
The air force is a crazy good career, great benefits, good hours, good pay. 10/10 bueno career. All my mates work a lot harder than I do i jobs they don't like for less
fucking air force get to kick back in hotels and jerk it to anime.
Only because so called web devs polluted the feild with so many defunct frameworks and meme languages.
Web development gave me cancer.
Which board is more shabbos goy(or dare i say full blown jew), /biz/ or Sup Forums?
