any info is appreciated famI know a couple dudes who do some of this stuff. Working on the Epic side. It's kind of a weird niche you gotta get into. App analysis departments like to pull from a combo of the clinical side and technical side, so

I be winkin' through the scope
Basically I see most of these guys in app analysis . They come from the medical side, have some computer skills and/or customer support exp. They usually know their respective apps front to back, and will work with systems and network teams to optimize them for userbases. Where I work they're usually customizing the UI or featureset of the hospital medical records system or other apps. You can definitely transition from the pharmacy and nursing sides.

Thought it would nice to have. I planned on getting the A+ then taking the Security+/Network+ afterwards. Should I forget about A+ and start working towards the other ones?If you're a network adminyou taking the a+ exam for?
lol talked to American Express for two Systems Engineers jobs (one with Openstack) in Pheonix AZ and one in Palo Alto CA. I asked for $75/hr if it was contract and he said that was too high. 
You asking me for an engineer job and expect me to relocate. I'm not being unreasonable here for a 6-9 month contract...

Man you already got a IT job which is the hardest part. Skip the A+ and go for a cert that is related to the field of IT you actually enjoy. I would of traded you for your job experience instead of spending the past 6 months studying for the A+ and CCNA just to get into the field.

you dont want to work for AMEX, trust me.
When I hear Indian recruiters hitting me up I get a little cautious.
Got some leads at RedHat, IBM, GE Digital, and Indeed thus far. My boss at my previous job before Dell/EMC said I'm rehirable and is referring me to a recruiter at Google's Storage Cloud.
I always feel defeated in these situations though because I'm at the whim of the employer.
