Do not narrow yourself to just "computer jobs." Do you have _any_
work experience at all? References?<br>
My career path is not strictly within the IT realm. I got to where
I am now by taking random jobs, getting references, and
correlating them to the field.<br>
<br>
I used to work as a barista. I took that same customer service
experience and applied to my work as a customer service
representative for what is essentially an ISP. Not only did I do
that, I learned new skills and applied my knowledge to that job. I
took on new responsibilities.<br>
These projects and newfound skills are a line item on my resume.<br>
The job I had on campus as a math lab assistant has looked
favorably upon certain employers (particularly Sonic.net) [that
interview went pear-shaped for a number of undisclosable reasons].<br>
<br>
But guess what? I have letters of recommendation! These are
critical!<br>
Did any of your teachers offer a reference or recommendation? If
so, take them up on it.<br>
<br>
Perhaps you should look for something in the data entry realm.<br>
<br>
I have had some success with Nelson Staffing; friends have had
success with Robert Half (OfficeTeam particularly).<br>
<br>
Rome was not built in a day; your computing career will not
either.<br>
<br>
I hope that this guides you.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hey, I just got done with SRJC and I'm looking for
a job now in the computer field. I have my CCNA and CCNA
Security but no experience. I'm really into the computer
security side. I know it's hard to get a computer job with no
experience. I've also been looking for internships. Does anyone
on this mailing list know of any computer jobs for the entry
level guy? Thanks Alot. I hope to hear from all of you!
