Congrats! I'm in the same career field. There's a lot of room for growth if you cert up and stack years of experience. I'm 20 years in. Started out in the military. After 4 years, got a 100% travel DoD job (sucked) at 75k. Did that for 3 years. Felt really discouraged at that time because I couldn't land a stationary job. Ended up getting one in the East Bay (CA) an hour from where I grew up. I was a contractor for a year at 90k (7 years experience). The next year I was hired as a fulltime employee at 110k. I finished my bachelor's shortly after that. I steadily got yearly cost of living raises and got two promotions. With bonuses I'm now at 200k.

Experience is king then certs. After that, a degree. In my case, a degree didn't advance my career at all because I was already working for the company I'm with without one. They did have to get a waiver approved to hire me though because one of the job requirement was a 4 year degree.

Best of luck!
I agree

If I do get a degree im going for Logistics

Trying to get where u at

Congrats Breh.

I to went down the IT path with no experience. Started on customer service, moved to helpdesk, then network / Linux admin. Its a grind but can be very rewarding if you network and take advantage of the opportunities.
Thank u.

And congrats. The hustle is real

It was a grind

I was getting very discouraged

I remember when my friend was applying and I told him you gotta keep trying

Was about to say fukk my own advice and take a break

I think im still going back to school
NE is a good place for education just generally.

I'm very familiar with the area (college in NE). Boston has a lovely July 4th fireworks spectacle. They time the fireworks with the anthems. We usually stay at the Intercontinental.

Welcome to the east and congratulations- we make money here. :salute::blessed:
