I don't see a price on the Security one.
Since you're looking at Chicago, I'd peep Evolve Security Academy Bootcamp. They might have what you're looking for.

Your too old to be talking this non-sense.
You need to figure out what to do with your life and if you are serious about the career path you are going to embark on.

Don't shrug, figure it out, get serious about your life and what you want to do.

Focus on your health first. None of this is more important than your health.

Yea im getting straight
Disconnect from the internet and figure your shyt out.
If you are acting on impulses this won't end well for you. Take some time for yourself and plan you next move brehs.
Who on that DevOps wave?
I do IT type work...had an end user who’s responsible for low level sys admin really ask me “when you say switches...what do you exactly mean?”

I got my medication straight and I’m doing better.
So fellas, I am about to start upgrading my resume/CV and am probably gonna post it here when done for some critique. Just looking for some general tips.
I am trying to land a 9-5 Help Desk/Desktop Support/Tech Support in another city with better opprotunities for growth and advancement. All while attending an internship I landed which is a few hours a night coming out to about 15-20hrs a week on top of the job I am hoping to find. If I can't pull it in time I might just settle for whatever I can get in the city to put me through the internship. I need that experience more than anything... Especially since it's security stuff. I'll be attending school online as well so Feb-June is gonna busy as fukk for ya boy.
Now, about the resume/CV.
-Should I keep it one page?
-Any go to templates or layouts you guys like?
-I am getting some decent experience in my current Tech Support position but it really sucks... I hate sending up calls that I know the fix for
-To add to the point above: might be able to fill up my resume with some of this experience
-Cover letters for each job? Yes or no?
-I am already on that train of making a different resume for every position I apply for
-How do you layout a resume with limited IT experience? All my other job experience is retail, food business, and some in-between transitional jobs here and there
-Should I highlight skills such as communication and customer services? I did not pass my Sec+ (still gonna retake it) but was able to make some moves regardless

from my experience with resumes
1. doesnt have to be one page
2. keep it simple. no fancy templates or layouts
3. the IT skills you do have...doesn't hurt to embellish a little..esp with any of the jobs you have
4. i do cover letters. i consider it a less formalized way to sell myself outside of the resume
5. yes highlight communication and customer service. Its a skillset within IT that surprisingly even the most technically skilled individuals lack lol.
