Welcome!

 

Welcome to Cert Forums!

What do you mean by it's not going well?

You are not recieving any interviews?
You are reciveing interviews but are not getting any job offers?

Let us know and perhaps we can help

 

Well I've been applying for jobs, most of them found on websites (Jobsite, cwjobs ect) but have had no replies.
I've been looking at 1st line support jobs and jobs like that but nearly all of the ones i've seen are asking for previous experience.
Just have to wait for the right one i suppose.

 

Hello and welcome to the forums!

 

keep plugging away you will get there, CVs & Interviews are also skills you get better at over time. It is disheartening at first but keep at it, theres bucket loads of good info on these baords that will help you on your way as well.

 

Thanks for the welcomes everyone.

And yeah, I know it's gonna take me along time to get a job. So i better just get on with it and start applying.

Would anyone recomend me study for another qualification while I'm waiting on a new job? I was thinking about taking the MCDST upgrade exam, 621 i think it is.

if you already have A+ and MCDST, then I would try and get some voluntary IT work experience or perhaps failing that look at getting into some kind of apprentership with a large company like BT..
