Re: question for the [ms] IT industry crew...

If you go into Computer Science, specialize in something. I can recommend you start by getting your CCNA (entry level - Cisco Certified Network Associate) if your interested in the Networking side of computers. Or get your MCSE if your interested in the cliet or software side. Then work up through certifications.

The fact is that the IT industry sucks right now unless you have specialized certifications. Now granted, you will always be able to find a job - but most corporations are constantly hiring and firing IT People. So you will probably always have a job, you'll just be moving around a lot. With a specialized certification, you can get into the more secure side of the IT industry, and not the peon who fixes everyones computer. I can only comment on the communications corporations, but with a CCNA and later Cisco certifications - you can get virtually any engineering or networking position within a company. Thats after you gain experience too of course.

thanks for the insight/advice

where did you go to get certified?

You can get on Cisco's website I'm sure to find where you can take the exams. Also for Microsoft certs, just try googling it. They offer the exams at a lot of University's or Community College's, so check with those in your area.

Unfortunetely I only have a link to the Colorado website where they show where the exams are held and so on. But I guess you might be able to find some information thats useful with the link, its called New Horizons so you can try to google that and see if they offer their services in other states.
