Yeah :( despite the outsourceing, you can still find them here, Normally Medical insurences places like cigna and bluecross have IT vacancies (check there websites under careers) get on Job Monster with a resume, you may get picked up by an agency, thats not to bad.. you gain experience but you are not tied to one application for training.
The real time to get in to this line of work was around 2001-2002 when the IT/net boom happended, top $$ was being paid for work.. everyone wanted to be in IT.. When the bubble burst, all the nubs who used to flip burgers and got thre A+ or something took the low paid jobs and those with experience were left in the shit cos employed wanted cheap IT. They soon figured out that you get what you pay for when these kids and no idea about NT4, or any of the older kit..
The days of getting 80-90k for IT unless your a oracle or SQL gru are long gone.. you have to keep up with the game and the current trends otherwise there is always some kid trying for your job
Wow for once this has turned into a decent thread..
