Hi there,

I am genuinely struggling to find a more entry/junior level IT position. Does anyone have any tips at all? I have about 2 years of relevant technical troubleshooting experience, with one year dedicated to network and PC troubleshooting. I currently hold the A+ certification, and am on track to pass my Network+ exam by January 2026. It is extremely hard finding a job that will foster a technical career choice, and I need genuine advice about what else I can do. Thanks!

Most interviews are about soliciting emotional responses from the interviewer panel. So worry about that first then once one gets more experience then can worry about more technical experience

I've definetly made great strides in that area and am able to build good raport during the interviews. It's mostly securing a interview period that I am struggling. I've very very very recently started writing cover letters, focusing on the independent skills I am growing into, but outside of that I am struggling with how else I can secure more interviews (if any of that made sense)

Check out Spectrum. It'll most likely start as a help desk position first.

So discouraged that houses where I live are about 50% higher than what they were 2 years ago, and now interest rates are around 5.25% for my credit score. This is like a 1750 sq foot home
