Answer 1

Well, it sounds like you are on your way. But really without real work experience, its going to be very difficult getting hired with your current resume/credentials.

You might be qualified for a Desktop Technician position. Perhaps a call center support person. You may want to put in your resume with one of those technical staffing companies, and just get as much knowledge and experience as you can. You'll learn in time, as long as you keep yourself open to opportunity.

Things you should be prepared to answer:

What kind of server experience? Do you know anything about DNS, DHCP? If Microsoft, how familiar are you with Active Directory? Group Policies?

What tasks or administrative functions have you performed?

Talk about a time you have had to troubleshoot a PC problem.

Do you have any experience with backup solutions?

Any experience with storage? Either SAN or NAS?

Any enterprise network experience?

Any database experience?


Good luck!
