Hey everybody!
So I'm new to the site (First post, actually) and trying to break into the IT field. Figured this would be a good start for some advise.
Currently, I have a B.A. in Game Design, but wanted to move fields due to the industry being quite volatile in terms of job security. I'm quite computer savvy without any official training or work experience. I'm taking classes and prepping for my A+ certification. So far, I feel like I know most of the information already. That being said, I had a few questions that I hope can be answered here:
As someone who has no prior experience in the IT field, what are some example jobs/companies that promote and actively hire A+ certified candidates?
(With the exception of inbound/call center positions, I've done that before and it just does not work for me.)
How would I tailor a resume for this field without prior experience?
I have hit a road block recently trying to give my resume a face-lift and realized that I may not have anything solid that I can put down with the exception of eventually obtaining the A+ cert.
Any advise or information would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advanced,
- James
