    I am from H-town. I've been in help/service desk for 6 years. My job tittle is service desk specialist, but I am really a sys admin. I make 70k with bonuses. You have to grind your ass and be wanting to learn always. When you have passion for this stuff it comes with time. Your just lazy tech if you don't think you can make money in help desk!

    From Dallas, get paid 39k for IT help desk technician. I have A+ and Google IT support. It's my first job in IT after graduating with a bachelor's (major in liberal arts). Hoping one day I can use my bachelor's to work close to my bachelor's but in an IT aspect.

    Love your desktop wallpaper with the recycle bin under the desk.
    great video, glad you also mentioned the difference between companies, experience and location.
    pretty difficult to know your worth as a beginner,
    do you recommend working with recruiters or do you have any pointers on how to measure how much your worth to prepare for interviews?
    great tip on tailoring our resume for a specific job description.
    stay awesome

      Thank. Job recruiters can definitely help. I would do research on your local area and see what the salary range in that state and go based on that when it comes to marketing yourself.

    2 jobs at the same time makes sense for the company wanting to cut costs. "hm, we only have to pay one salary and benefits package if we have this one person do two jobs" 😂

    I used the sybex practice tests for the comptia a+. I studied many many hours and was consistently getting 85-90% on the sybex practice tests. Over 670 questions for the 1001 alone. Today I failed that 1001. So much of that test was not covered at all by the 670 question sybex practice. Don't get sybex, it's complete trash. So disappointing. I spent atleast 100 hours studying those practice tests

    How about the IT comparisons between helpdesk, Helpdesk techs, Jr. net Admins and the other side of the IT spectrum, web developers, programmers/coders.
    Lol. There is a very large discrepancy between the two sides of IT.

    Work authorization does not mean you have to be born in the states. It means you need work permit or green card
