How to gain IT Employment
Hello,
I have been trying to get employment in the IT field but have been having the most difficult time. I submitted several resumes to numerous companies that have been posting positions that I believe I am qualified for. Half of the places I applied to have been entry level so that I can gain experience with the company and grow in the field. Some places I have gotten at least a response and have had interviews with but still no job. To give a brief description of my background I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Information Technology, a Master’s Degree in Instructional Technology, another Master’s in Information Systems Management, and another relatively recent Master’s in International Business. All of my degrees are from well respected Universities in the country. I have a temporary job now that is not in my field at a retail store but it is barely paying minimum wage. I really could use some guidance and insight on how and where to apply to companies that is looking to hire an IT professional. I can start with entry level and grow from there but I just need that foot in the door. Please can anyone help and give advice?
