As someone who has been in IT for years in US and despite having tons of acronyms and experience on my resume, I still this same kind of nonsense from HR/recruiter idiots who majored in beer drinking and don't even know what 90% of my resume even means. I'm very interested in whether or not this helped you land a decent paying, stable IT job that doesn't drive you completely insane.
I stopped using the sub due to switching to DMSI now I am back on it since the 3rd of May and want to continue it until I get a job but I just can't land a job, I recently had an interview it goes well then they just disappear the consultants number doesn't even work nor does he reply to his email, I honestly don't even know what to do anymore ?
I could have gotten in to a coding job, but that isn't something I wish to pursue anymore. My aim is to get in to IT Support, right now I'd take anything that's how desperate I am. I would be broke but have been getting by due to things I do on the side (buying/selling) but it's so hard without real experience to get an IT job. I am currently doing my Comptia certification with a company that has agreed that once I pass my exams they'll place me somewhere it's an IT Technician role this was my backup but it looks like I'll have to complete this and get in to it.
The sub is very interesting, my idea IT role would be a sys admin / network engineer. I get recommendations via email and consultants directly contacting me with the exact kind of roles I wish to get in to but I don't have any experience so it doesn't go anywhere. What am I supposed to do?
Like you said these recruitment idiots don't know what's going on : /
You said you have tons of acronyms/experience on your resume, what are you currently doing / want to do?
