Amazing video. for such a small channel, the quality and conciseness has blown me away. You seem eager to help people kickstart their way into I.T. and I find that awesome. Keep grinding on RUclips Josh and I can guarantee you’ll make it big. Thank you for the video.
No, thank YOU! You really moved me with this comment. Much appreciated, seriously. I'm trying to get better with every video :). Thanks so much for watching TT
I’m honestly blown away that you could study, work, go to the gym, get all these certifications all while having a wife. If you read this please make a video or at least comment on this post on how you manage your time and what your work/life/study balance is like . PLEASE lol I would love to know.
Hahaha, first, thanks for watching! I'll probably make a video on this at some point. _>I’m honestly blown away that you could study, work, go to the gym, get all these certifications all while having a wife._ For full transparency, I had all my certs before I got married lol. Also, I don't know how to balance anything in my life. I tend to go really HARD in one area. When I do this, all of the other areas really suffer. I've always been like this but have been trying to fix it. I will put this in my video TODOs haha
I am transitioning from nursing to IT. I have prior computer knowledge and i am currently taking classes on Security+. A friend of mine directed me to your videos on RUclips. Now i cant stop watching your videos. Thanks for those wonderful contents.
Hey! Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad they recommended me haha. Lately, I've been seeing quite a few people moving out of nursing into IT--very interesting! Good luck :)
@@JoshMadakor I'm doing the same thing. Attempting to get out of nursing and studying to take the A+ cert at the moment. Your videos have made my life so much simpler and answered so many questions! I have been bingewatching all of your videos today! We are lucky folks exist like you to lend a hand to us just starting out!
I work as an ER tech and began my pre research for Nursing. After working with nurses, I decided to take the pay cut and start my IT journey at Geek Squad and study for the CompTIA+ exam 😂
Thank you Josh, this is very clear helpful information. I am a carpenter seeking to get into IT. I have passed my A+ Core 1 and will pass my Core 2 shortly. I plan to follow your advice about making my own experience with Active Directory and trimming my resume.
Awesome! Man you are well on your way! Good job with Core 1. Check out my Active Directory lab and feel free to steal any of the code or ideas if they helpful: ruclips.net/video/MHsI8hJmggI/видео.html Best of luck with your exam and job hunt :)
Update: I now have my A+ Net+ Sec+ and over 1.5 years experience in IT, and Josh also inspired me to start my own small YT channel! (Vincent Humble) Thanks for everything Josh, and well wishes to others out there who are on a similar journey!
I failed the a+ exams twice. The second time my score was lower than the first on both parts. The exams are bs how they are worded and set up. I waited 6 months in between tries, and i studied the entire time. That was after a year of studying before i took my first try. Im extremely discouraged and i cant afford to take the exams again. I basically had to take out a loan to take them.
Dang, that sucks and I'm really sorry. I find that grinding practice questions helps quite a bit. Then target studying areas that are difficult. Be sure to get some really good practice questions though, like Professor Messers, CBT Nuggets, and any official ones you can find. Careful of random free questions on the internet.
I have zero experience in IT. I have ITIL, CompTIA A+, Network+, Sec+, and Project+, Microsoft 365 endpoint administrator certification, and a secret clearance. I am also 70% done with my bachelors degree in cybersecurity & information assurance, and a secret security clearance. I can not get a entry level position to save my life lol
It is not easy. I have been on furlough for over a year by Marriott, in the DC area and have been diligently sending resumes out and had only a handful of interviews. Hospitality and IT field is like day and night. Oracle and some other companies maybe try to bridge the gaps by managing computer software like Micros and others. Also started IT field studies in a community college for over 2 years now and will be going for my Bachelors but … it is an extremely slow process.
Dang man, I'm sorry about the hard time :(, hope you find something soon. It's hard to really give any tailored advice since I don't know your exact situation, but you could try seeing the kind of jobs in your area and manufacturing yourself some experience that match those. This video might be kind of useful to you in that regard: ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html (how to get experience without a job). Best of luck, and thanks for taking the time to comment and share your experience :)
i am so grateful for this video.. i want to get into the IT field... i am non-native English speaker also. i was born in Colombia (South America),,, i will follow you for more guidence,,, i see that you have that course in course careers what do you recommend this path or course careers?.. i hope to find the love of my live in the IT field Too... LOL
Hey Milena, I really appreciate you commenting! The path in this video and the CourseCareers path is almost the same, but the CourseCareers path is a little bit more refined. You don't necessarily have to take the course, but just the idea of the "12 stats" and the things you should do when trying to get a job in IT will really help a lot. If you get time, check out this video, I think it will help a lot!: ruclips.net/video/OHdFmQvpsvA/видео.html
Yoo what’s up Josh. I’m planning on getting the Network+ and Security+. I’m going to go over both of Professor Messor’s A+ sections first to gain the knowledge but I rather not spend the money on the A+ exams. I will be sitting for the Network+ and Security+ exams though. Do you think this is a good idea? Or do you think I should try to get the A+ cert as well?
Hey Ayon, no need to get A+ if you plan to jump straight into Net+/Sec+. I believe jobs "requiring" A+ will make an exception if you have N/S, though maybe you won't be applying to those anyway :). Good luck!
@@JoshMadakor hey Josh, thanks for replying! It seems like some of the material and topics from the A+ are repeated in the Network+. Should I just skip the A+ and start studying the Network+ material?
Is Network+ and Security+ dependent on each other (in lack of better phrase) meaning you have to learn both to get a job? Also, this might sound dumb because I'm completely new to this but does any of them require coding?
If we go through professor Messers part one and part two, will that help us pass the CompTiA A+ certification? Also where can we take the CompTiA A+ certification?
Oh-kayyy!! Guess all the aesthetically pleasing guys are cooped up in IT. This transition will be very rewarding for me, I see! Yep, just heard him say "my wife". 🤠
Step 1 get knowledge. Great start. Because no one is going to hire you if you don't have knowledge in THE SPECIFIC AREAS they are hiring for. You'll also need demonstrable experience IN THOSE AREAS. Step 3 is "make your own experience". How exactly does that work? And wasn't the title "without Experience"? Sure you can do the lab's and tut's... but is it really experience? (Hint: no) Overall most of your suggestions are 101 "how to get **any** job". And no I didn't watch the entire video, cause... no, you can't get a job in IT with no experience.
I guess we have to define what "experience" is. In this context, I was referring to experience as having worked a job where you had to fill out an i-9/w-2 etc, in an official sense. So yeah, you can definitely get a job in IT without having done this. Someone can get REALLY good at using technology and understanding business processes on their own. Of course, without having worked in an actual corporate environment, even the most technical person will be lacking some nuanced knowledge/experience, but the learning curve will be MUCH less if they have primed themselves before hand with projects and self-study. As someone who has hired a lot of people and has several employees myself, I can't hire these type of self-starters fast enough 👍
Josh, thank you so much for all of the videos you put out on helping others with starting a career in IT! They are SO helpful (as someone who is a total newbie haha)
I have always been into tech my whole life and wanted to get into the field in some way. Even in my b.s. IT degree they don't give a good path for what I should be doing to get a job. However this structured path you have in the video is amazing and to the point! You definitely deserve more attention in the RUclips space.
Thanks so much, that really means a lot. I'm glad you like the content. There is another video that MIGHT be useful for you, check it out whenever you get time :p ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment!
How many years of experience is need from regular IT work to get into the cyber security field with a certification like Security Plus or Certified Network Defender? What is your thoughts about getting a Certified Network Defender from EC-Council? Also I have around 10 months of PC technician experience, would that check off Step 3?
I've worked with computers my whole life and built my own. I probably know most of the A+ curriculum just offhand. Yet I still work a shitty dead end min-wage job. Really been thinking about getting into IT lately because working at fast food and grocery stores for years has really just ignited a rage in me like no other. The customers are rude as hell and disrespectful. At least as an IT help desk I'd be getting full time hours and some benefits. I know my worth and this isn't it.
I would start applying and make sure you have you resume written with ChatGPT , which is what I did. List all experience u have for IT even if it’s helping friends and family as the dedicated IT guy for them. List out your customer service experience as well , maybe list that your studying for you comptia A+ . I transition from Walmart to a really good entry level job with in the year bro so it’s very do able.
Thanks for watching and commenting. The Internet is a truly dope place. I feel the zoomers these days can get so far if the realize its power early on :>. Sheesh.
Josh, AWESOME video! Im just recently left the military and currently going to school for Cyber, I was anxious until I watched some of your videos. Definitely applying these steps and using your resources. Keep the content coming my man!
Haha thanks for the compliment. It's all natural, I just tried to get halfway decent equipment for my audio (it's in the description). I also use noise gate and audio compression filters to keep the sound evened out, but my voice is just me talking normally 😂. Thanks again
Super inciteful! I'm working towards my BA in Computer science at the moment but really wanted to get a head start in terms of experience and was stuck lol. Thanks for explaining everything in a manner that was both clear and to the point!
Sheesh! Thanks so much, glad you liked the content! I think this was like the first actual video I made so it was kind of awkward lol. Much appreciated. I'm working on my CS degree too. Let's do our best :p
I have a bachelor's in MIS and I'm still looking for work. I just started a job today and my goal is to save up and take a comptia a+ exam. From what I hear it is supposed to give me an overall understanding of IT and serves a good way to decide whether I want to study for cybersecurity. So I'm gonna save money for this. I finished school in 2020, during covid, so I'm pumped about getting the ball rolling again. Wish me luck! 💯🙏🏼
I recently watched your video on creating the DHCP lab and I learned a lot from it. Keep up these kinds of videos man, as someone that's trying to branch into the IT world.
Love your videos Josh! I just completed both A+ exams and now I'm A+ certified! So, I am looking building a good resume and creating a Linkedin profile. This is very helpful thank you!
hi , where can i take the A+ exam? Online it says its hundreds of dollars, idk if this is right i googled for a while but im a bit confused what did you do?
Just wanted to come back and say thank you. I used this method to land a System Administrator position with no professional IT experience and just a few certs. Thank you so much for this!
@@ayonahmed965 CCNA and Security+. Even if you don't have those certs be sure to put that they're currently in progress on your resume so that more employers can find your resume. Hope this helps.
@@Eze_Cloud Is CCNA and Security+ dependent on each other (in lack of better phrase) meaning you have to learn both to get a job? Also, this might sound dumb because I'm completely new to this but does any of them require coding?
Thank you so much for your channel! I really want to get into tech, not sure what niche I want to do. I spent the last year learning programming but I also enjoy a lot of other things. I work as a legal secretary but even a lot of people there come to me with I.T. support type questions on a weekly basis so it's making me want to learn more about I.T. since I want to be offer better assistance to people so maybe I should look more into the I.T. route. 😄
Thank you so much for making your channel. I've watched the majority of the videos you have put out and they have helped immensely. I have accepted a job offer as a Help Desk Technician to get into the IT field, and eventually as my skills, knowledge, and education grows, I will go into the cyber security sector. You're the best!
Hey Dave, super glad that you like the channel. Thanks for watching my stuff I really appreciate it, and huge congrats on your new job, that's great. You got the hard part done, now all you gotta do is keep building! Best of luck :)
Amazing video. I am trying to finish up my a+ currently. I just need the 1002 exam. I graduated with a BA in computer science back in 2003. I changed career paths and went to cooking school and worked in the hotel industry the past 17 years until the pandemic hit. This motivated me to get back into IT because my restaurant in the hotel closed. I was just wondering what information I can get how to make a blog for my resume. What resources are on the internet. Thanks
Hey! You can use a free site like medium to publish your blog too. I'm kinda weak in this area, but there are probably some really good RUclips resources to help with SEO and other sites as well. Best of luck trying to get back in. You have that nice CS degree too 😎
Definitely agree with the whole small town thing I live in a country town with a population of 27,000 So even smaller than Walla Walla lol and yes I can attest that it is very hard to find jobs here for every occupation I’m definitely game for moving anywhere especially Seattle I’ve always wanted to go there
Highly recommend moving for work! Haha! But don’t move INTO Seattle itself, it sucks in there. Maybe Lynnwood, Shoreline, Everett, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Bothell, or Edmonds 😂. Sounds exciting though!
Thank you so much lol, but it's an illusion. This was actually the first actual video I made with my proper setup. Each segment took me many many many times re-recording it. If you notice, there are always a lot of jump-cuts and editing in my videos. It's because it takes forever for me to say something "correctly". I'm glad it looks alright in the end. I'm definitely not a natural, but the more videos I make, I feel I'm improving little by little. Thanks again, and btw thank you for watching :)
For sure. I need to re-do the Active Directory Lab and have it be actually good. Any requests in particular? Active Directory? DHCP? DNS? PowerShell? Virtual Machines with Virtual Network? Anything else? ^^
@@JoshMadakor Im not sure what would be best for me. Maybe something along the lines of what would you think a hiring manager or employer would like to see on a resume? What would be the most skillfull "homelab" to have i guess?
@@JoshMadakor network admin or systems admin. Im pursuing a comp sci degree right now and im not into development. So i wanted to go more towards cyber security. Though iv been told the best way to get into cyber security is through network admin or starting off as a IT support. So stuff like that I suppose. Sorry if im being vague.
@@wuyev Nah, it's not vague at all, and that is actually good advice (go through IT support). It's WAY easier to weasel your way into security when you're already working IT, even if you are working help desk. I'll do some thinking and make some videos around this as well as some some 'how-tos'.
Thanks a lot SIR. your video on Active Directory hands-on helps me a lot. having a hard time getting a job in IT entry level or Internship. but may GOD Bless you. you are helping many people out there
Thank you Josh! Question: I'm close to deciding which IT career niche I want to pursue, but I only want to work remotely. Can I expect to land a remote position with your "no experience" strategy?
Finishing my Bachelor's in Computer Science in 1st quarter 2024. Saving this video to refer back to while I pursue certifications towards the end of the degree. Updating my resume to put the skills and certs at the top, while keeping the fluffy verbiage down. Thank you for this video!
As someone who’s trying to get a job as a data analyst- should I only keep the highly relevant data analyst certs on my resume? (I have 4 that are relevant) Or should I also include my google project management & google marketing / E-commerce cert?
IT apprenticeships are great if you can find one! If not, I would recommend just "creating" your own experience. Check out this video where I talk about this in depth--I feel it's very useful! ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment :)
Hi Josh. I'm new to IT and I see that the A+ exam will be retired next month. Any tips on what to do for the new exam coming up? Will it be modified? If not, can I still use the current resources you provided to study for the new exam? Thank you for the helpful video.
Hey, I just looked and I didn't see it has a retirement date. If it gets retired, 100% a new A+ will be created with updated curriculum. A+ is like, _THE_ main entry-level IT cert so they won't remove it completely :P. Most of the old resources will probably still be applicable--there is generally a decent amount of overlap. Hope this helps!
I believed in one of your videos you mentioned being in contact with recruits to get contracts. If you've made a video on this can someone direct me to it, and if not. I would love it if you elaborated on the process of finding a good recruiter... or I guess getting found by a good recruiter. I'm not too familiar with this process and have only gotten jobs directly from the company.
Such a good video..I’m planning to change my career from non IT to IT and this is video has answered most of my questions including work experience..thanks and keep up the good informative work.
What is the best program to get certifications, that includes CCNA, and all those nice certs…besides My Computer Carrier. Please help!!! One for those that have no help.
I've been thinking about this one a lot recently. I even watched a few videos on it. I will probably make a video about it in the future, but to answer your question, so far, it seems quality and seems like a decent place to start. It just doesn't seem to have the presence on indeed etc., but that's kind of expected with most new certs!
Hi sir..... Iam saraniya....I finished my MCA degree in india.... Now iam in USA and searching job... I didn't have experience how can I enter into job sir.... Help me to get a job sir...
Hello saraniya. If you have a degree already, if you can, I would just move to a metro area and just start applying for jobs. There are so so many! A+ also helps for getting into the field. I know it's hard to move, but your chance of finding a job increase QUITE a bit, and getting that initial experience will really help you in the long run. Thanks for watching :)
Absolutely not! Most of my friends who work in IT don't have degrees. A degree is just one part of the equation and can be easily satisfied with certs or experience. Hope this helps!
Hey CaramelDreams, I'm not 100% sure what is required for Lab InfoSystems, but this is a good guide for breaking into IT in general so it probably wouldn't hurt :P
Iv been searching your videos. I would love some comments on remote or a video on remote working. For example: Someone like me who is very family oriented and recently forced to change careers. Is it likely to be able to land remote work being new to this industry? Do you always have to go into work or are there companies that only work remotely? Also, Iv watched your video on a day in the life. There are a lot of videos online but no one ever mentions time. How may hours do you normally work a day? Is it super stressful? Please make a video for the average working person switching career and what to expect..... Thank you. I love your videos and you are by far the best out here. Keep them coming
Hey, thanks so much for watching! I'll try to answer in-line: _Is it likely to be able to land remote work being new to this industry?_ I know one thing for sure, it's much more likely now than it was 4 years ago. As long as your Resume/Portfolio is looking good and you apply consistently, your chance aren't bad. _How may hours do you normally work a day? Is it super stressful?_ My job is a really strange job. It's a mixture of Cloud and Software Engineering. I honestly do about 4 hours of "labor" per day on this job and the stress is like a 2/10, maybe even 1/10. You will run into this a lot with Software Engineering at large companies that aren't Amazon, lol.. My Tech jobs were pretty similar, as long as you aren't doing consulting. Thank you so much for the kind words. I will definitely make a video on this. I added your comment and name to my list. I'm going to get a helper to help me with editing so I can put out more content, but I'm doing a lot of stuff right now so it's pretty hard haha. But yeah, seriously thank you :)
If they aren't citizens or permanent residents, no doubt it's going to be harder for them, unfortunately. If you are SUPER skilled though, H1B is possible I guess, but I don't really know about it
I'm glad you liked it! I'm thinking to remake this video and make it a bit better. I ALWAYS reference this video to people cuz this question is asked so often haha. Thanks so much for watching btw:)
@@bruah4364 Market feels the same but there are opportunities out there that you can capitalize on but you gotta be tough! If you were asking about the cancer though doc says the chemo has done its job for the most part!
Sweet, i was actually looking for a video about this. I am trying to find a job in IT or programming. But i will need to do some extra school years if i do want it.
Yoooo Josh you’re wife is insane 😂😂😂 you made a good choice being with her “completed the CCNA first” I’m sure not very many people would expect that; I don’t even know her and I’m proud! I just completed the CCNA 08/09
Hello Josh, I have an AAS degree in Cybersecurity and recently wanted to go to WGU. The program I chose, the B.sc in IT, requires some certs, but because of my Associate's it looks like the completion requirement for many of the classes has already been met, would you still recommend the degree with no certs despite most of my credits not transferring?
I would probably choose the degree that has the most classes satisfied by your AAS degree, then I would get any certs I cared about afterwards. That's just me though :). (This is actually what I did with my first BS degree, (BSIT))
@@JoshMadakor Fair enough, I appreciate your response. I recently resigned from my position at a call center, loved the company, loved the colleagues, but the customers weren't so friendly, I know from the start they wouldn't be but it weighed me down. I wanted to get my Bachelor's so I could try to come back to the company (left on great terms), to further qualify me for advanced positions in the future.
Thank you! Very informative video. However, what you say at around 16:00 about a small town (btw 34k people is not small at all where I’m from lol) makes me feel hopeless…the biggest town within a 2-hour radius is 10k people. Most of these small towns are 4K or less.😅

Thanks! I'm just starting IT as I EAS from the Marines... What's a better combo 1) CCNA W/ CCNP Or 2) CEH W/CySA+ Or 3) CySA W/ Splunk? The goal is to work from home and having a little trouble determining which certs I should do?
my dawg i literally clapped out loud in my room from how succinct and actually useful the information that was presented in this video you are a fucking legend!
This content can be used in a high paid college. Wonder how much effort is used to created college curriculum, if this one person with a RUclips channel can give so much more value.
Am about to start a course course at a college soon. I want to start with comptia a+ however, there's a bundle course where you can do comptia n+ and cisco routing and switching all at once. My question is do you think it's advisable to study them all at once or is it too much?
@@IyoniAdeMacy N+ Was a no go...I'm not into networking. Couldn't for the life of christ get it. I studied super hard and barely got Sec + but I did. Its been a tough road since many want you to already have experience and nobody wants to train anyone.
@@johnshepard7630 uh I think my comment got deleted lol, but start doing projects & set up a github portfolio, Josh has a vid on that, that’ll be experience & watch other vids on projects & do those, teach it etc, network as well!! Also Josh has a vid on how to pass any IT certification. It’s basically on how to study correctly by understanding and not memorizing. I hope it gets better for you!!
Hey Abdullah! You don't _HAVE_ to take CompTIA A+. CompTIA might match more keywords, but the Google cert gives adequate knowledge in my opinion. If you are worried, maybe do some extra projects for your resume to stand out :). Thanks for watching!

It's hard to really give any tailored advice since I don't know your exact situation, but you could try seeing the kind of jobs in your area and manufacturing yourself some experience that match those. This video might be kind of useful to you in that regard: ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html (how to get experience without a job).
Best of luck, and thanks for taking the time to comment and share your experience :)
i am so grateful for this video.. i want to get into the IT field... i am non-native English speaker also. i was born in Colombia (South America),,, i will follow you for more guidence,,, i see that you have that course in course careers what do you recommend this path or course careers?.. i hope to find the love of my live in the IT field Too... LOL
Hey Milena, I really appreciate you commenting! The path in this video and the CourseCareers path is almost the same, but the CourseCareers path is a little bit more refined. You don't necessarily have to take the course, but just the idea of the "12 stats" and the things you should do when trying to get a job in IT will really help a lot. If you get time, check out this video, I think it will help a lot!: ruclips.net/video/OHdFmQvpsvA/видео.html
Yoo what’s up Josh. I’m planning on getting the Network+ and Security+. I’m going to go over both of Professor Messor’s A+ sections first to gain the knowledge but I rather not spend the money on the A+ exams. I will be sitting for the Network+ and Security+ exams though. Do you think this is a good idea? Or do you think I should try to get the A+ cert as well?
Hey Ayon, no need to get A+ if you plan to jump straight into Net+/Sec+. I believe jobs "requiring" A+ will make an exception if you have N/S, though maybe you won't be applying to those anyway :). Good luck!
@@JoshMadakor hey Josh, thanks for replying! It seems like some of the material and topics from the A+ are repeated in the Network+. Should I just skip the A+ and start studying the Network+ material?
Is Network+ and Security+ dependent on each other (in lack of better phrase) meaning you have to learn both to get a job? Also, this might sound dumb because I'm completely new to this but does any of them require coding?
If we go through professor Messers part one and part two, will that help us pass the CompTiA A+ certification? Also where can we take the CompTiA A+ certification?
Oh-kayyy!! Guess all the aesthetically pleasing guys are cooped up in IT. This transition will be very rewarding for me, I see! Yep, just heard him say "my wife". 🤠
Hey Josh, Do you have the 6 step framework slides for getting a job in IT as a downloadable? I dont see them in the description.
Hmm the slides? Can you post the timestamp here or ping me on linked in?
check his other videos with the similar titles he has the steps in the video description
Do I just buy a CompTIA A+ book of Amazon to get started?
What are the headphones for?
They are for you to create engagement. Thanks!
(i was just lazy probably lol)
Step 1 get knowledge. Great start. Because no one is going to hire you if you don't have knowledge in THE SPECIFIC AREAS they are hiring for. You'll also need demonstrable experience IN THOSE AREAS.
Step 3 is "make your own experience". How exactly does that work? And wasn't the title "without Experience"? Sure you can do the lab's and tut's... but is it really experience? (Hint: no)
Overall most of your suggestions are 101 "how to get **any** job". And no I didn't watch the entire video, cause... no, you can't get a job in IT with no experience.
I guess we have to define what "experience" is. In this context, I was referring to experience as having worked a job where you had to fill out an i-9/w-2 etc, in an official sense. So yeah, you can definitely get a job in IT without having done this. Someone can get REALLY good at using technology and understanding business processes on their own. Of course, without having worked in an actual corporate environment, even the most technical person will be lacking some nuanced knowledge/experience, but the learning curve will be MUCH less if they have primed themselves before hand with projects and self-study.
As someone who has hired a lot of people and has several employees myself, I can't hire these type of self-starters fast enough 👍
Do you need to finish college for this?
Nope! Instead of a degree, you can swap in relevant certs (Google Tech Support, CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, ITIL, etc).
Hope this helps!
This is a great video 🫡
Josh, thank you so much for all of the videos you put out on helping others with starting a career in IT! They are SO helpful (as someone who is a total newbie haha)
When people say they were new to IT and go on tell you all their past jobs was mostly in IT 🙄
Right lol
I have always been into tech my whole life and wanted to get into the field in some way. Even in my b.s. IT degree they don't give a good path for what I should be doing to get a job. However this structured path you have in the video is amazing and to the point! You definitely deserve more attention in the RUclips space.
Thanks so much, that really means a lot. I'm glad you like the content. There is another video that MIGHT be useful for you, check it out whenever you get time :p
ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html
Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment!
Agreed. Massively underrated video
This is a great video. Thank you. Especially the resume part. I struggle with this
How many years of experience is need from regular IT work to get into the cyber security field with a certification like Security Plus or Certified Network Defender?
What is your thoughts about getting a Certified Network Defender from EC-Council?
Also I have around 10 months of PC technician experience, would that check off Step 3?
I've worked with computers my whole life and built my own. I probably know most of the A+ curriculum just offhand. Yet I still work a shitty dead end min-wage job. Really been thinking about getting into IT lately because working at fast food and grocery stores for years has really just ignited a rage in me like no other. The customers are rude as hell and disrespectful. At least as an IT help desk I'd be getting full time hours and some benefits. I know my worth and this isn't it.
I would start applying and make sure you have you resume written with ChatGPT , which is what I did. List all experience u have for IT even if it’s helping friends and family as the dedicated IT guy for them. List out your customer service experience as well , maybe list that your studying for you comptia A+ . I transition from Walmart to a really good entry level job with in the year bro so it’s very do able.
I wish I was young and trying to get into IT right now. What a great time for that with all this free advice and all the training options out there.
Thanks for watching and commenting. The Internet is a truly dope place. I feel the zoomers these days can get so far if the realize its power early on :>. Sheesh.
Josh, AWESOME video! Im just recently left the military and currently going to school for Cyber, I was anxious until I watched some of your videos. Definitely applying these steps and using your resources. Keep the content coming my man!
Great! Thanks so much for watching. Hope it helps!
I'm thrilled with your voice Josh. Is it natural, trained, or the gadgets? I really want a voice like that to get started as a vlogger. Great insight.
Haha thanks for the compliment. It's all natural, I just tried to get halfway decent equipment for my audio (it's in the description). I also use noise gate and audio compression filters to keep the sound evened out, but my voice is just me talking normally 😂. Thanks again
Super inciteful! I'm working towards my BA in Computer science at the moment but really wanted to get a head start in terms of experience and was stuck lol. Thanks for explaining everything in a manner that was both clear and to the point!
Sheesh! Thanks so much, glad you liked the content! I think this was like the first actual video I made so it was kind of awkward lol. Much appreciated. I'm working on my CS degree too. Let's do our best :p
I have a bachelor's in MIS and I'm still looking for work. I just started a job today and my goal is to save up and take a comptia a+ exam. From what I hear it is supposed to give me an overall understanding of IT and serves a good way to decide whether I want to study for cybersecurity. So I'm gonna save money for this. I finished school in 2020, during covid, so I'm pumped about getting the ball rolling again. Wish me luck! 💯🙏🏼
If you have a degree and a job, why would you take the A+? Why not just do a quick review and jump on the CCNA?
I recently watched your video on creating the DHCP lab and I learned a lot from it. Keep up these kinds of videos man, as someone that's trying to branch into the IT world.
Thanks so much, definitely means a lot!
I am getting back into IT after 15 years being out of it. I still have my A+ cert and I got it in 1999. It is still valid :)
Love your videos Josh! I just completed both A+ exams and now I'm A+ certified! So, I am looking building a good resume and creating a Linkedin profile. This is very helpful thank you!
Super!! Congrats on fishing those exams, that's no joke. GL!!
hi , where can i take the A+ exam? Online it says its hundreds of dollars, idk if this is right i googled for a while but im a bit confused what did you do?
Just wanted to come back and say thank you. I used this method to land a System Administrator position with no professional IT experience and just a few certs. Thank you so much for this!
No problem! Thanks for taking the time to come back and share your success story!!
What certs did you have??
@@ayonahmed965 CCNA and Security+. Even if you don't have those certs be sure to put that they're currently in progress on your resume so that more employers can find your resume. Hope this helps.
@@Eze_Cloud Great advice Oga. Thanks
@@Eze_Cloud Is CCNA and Security+ dependent on each other (in lack of better phrase) meaning you have to learn both to get a job? Also, this might sound dumb because I'm completely new to this but does any of them require coding?

Thank you so much for your channel! I really want to get into tech, not sure what niche I want to do. I spent the last year learning programming but I also enjoy a lot of other things. I work as a legal secretary but even a lot of people there come to me with I.T. support type questions on a weekly basis so it's making me want to learn more about I.T. since I want to be offer better assistance to people so maybe I should look more into the I.T. route. 😄
Thank you so much for making your channel. I've watched the majority of the videos you have put out and they have helped immensely. I have accepted a job offer as a Help Desk Technician to get into the IT field, and eventually as my skills, knowledge, and education grows, I will go into the cyber security sector. You're the best!
Hey Dave, super glad that you like the channel. Thanks for watching my stuff I really appreciate it, and huge congrats on your new job, that's great. You got the hard part done, now all you gotta do is keep building! Best of luck :)
Amazing video. I am trying to finish up my a+ currently. I just need the 1002 exam. I graduated with a BA in computer science back in 2003. I changed career paths and went to cooking school and worked in the hotel industry the past 17 years until the pandemic hit. This motivated me to get back into IT because my restaurant in the hotel closed. I was just wondering what information I can get how to make a blog for my resume. What resources are on the internet.
Thanks
Hey! You can use a free site like medium to publish your blog too. I'm kinda weak in this area, but there are probably some really good RUclips resources to help with SEO and other sites as well. Best of luck trying to get back in. You have that nice CS degree too 😎
Thank you so much Josh, amazing content! I’ve learned a lot. God bless.
Thank you so much! It's my pleasure!
Definitely agree with the whole small town thing I live in a country town with a population of 27,000 So even smaller than Walla Walla lol and yes I can attest that it is very hard to find jobs here for every occupation I’m definitely game for moving anywhere especially Seattle I’ve always wanted to go there
Highly recommend moving for work! Haha! But don’t move INTO Seattle itself, it sucks in there. Maybe Lynnwood, Shoreline, Everett, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Bothell, or Edmonds 😂. Sounds exciting though!
You seem so natural on camera. Did it come natural, practiced, or a course?
Thank you so much lol, but it's an illusion. This was actually the first actual video I made with my proper setup. Each segment took me many many many times re-recording it. If you notice, there are always a lot of jump-cuts and editing in my videos. It's because it takes forever for me to say something "correctly". I'm glad it looks alright in the end. I'm definitely not a natural, but the more videos I make, I feel I'm improving little by little. Thanks again, and btw thank you for watching :)
can you do more homelab tutorial especially for beginners? i cant seem to figure out how to start.
For sure. I need to re-do the Active Directory Lab and have it be actually good. Any requests in particular? Active Directory? DHCP? DNS? PowerShell? Virtual Machines with Virtual Network? Anything else? ^^
@@JoshMadakor Im not sure what would be best for me. Maybe something along the lines of what would you think a hiring manager or employer would like to see on a resume? What would be the most skillfull "homelab" to have i guess?
@@wuyev What do you envision yourself doing at work? For example, Helpdesk, Network Engineering, Cloud stuff, etc.?
@@JoshMadakor network admin or systems admin. Im pursuing a comp sci degree right now and im not into development. So i wanted to go more towards cyber security. Though iv been told the best way to get into cyber security is through network admin or starting off as a IT support. So stuff like that I suppose. Sorry if im being vague.
@@wuyev Nah, it's not vague at all, and that is actually good advice (go through IT support). It's WAY easier to weasel your way into security when you're already working IT, even if you are working help desk. I'll do some thinking and make some videos around this as well as some some 'how-tos'.
Bro I live in Washington and my city population is 3 thousand 😭
Thanks a lot SIR. your video on Active Directory hands-on helps me a lot. having a hard time getting a job in IT entry level or Internship. but may GOD Bless you. you are helping many people out there
I hope you got that Job!
This is practical, tried and true information. Great job Josh!
Thanks so much Emmanuel!
Would you recommend ccna over the network plus
Thank you Josh! Question: I'm close to deciding which IT career niche I want to pursue, but I only want to work remotely. Can I expect to land a remote position with your "no experience" strategy?
there are several companies that offers remote I.T jobs
Finishing my Bachelor's in Computer Science in 1st quarter 2024. Saving this video to refer back to while I pursue certifications towards the end of the degree. Updating my resume to put the skills and certs at the top, while keeping the fluffy verbiage down. Thank you for this video!
As someone who’s trying to get a job as a data analyst- should I only keep the highly relevant data analyst certs on my resume? (I have 4 that are relevant)
Or should I also include my google project management & google marketing / E-commerce cert?
What about IT apprenticeships?
IT apprenticeships are great if you can find one! If not, I would recommend just "creating" your own experience. Check out this video where I talk about this in depth--I feel it's very useful!
ruclips.net/video/UasHPQ0VBOc/видео.html
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment :)
Hi Josh. I'm new to IT and I see that the A+ exam will be retired next month. Any tips on what to do for the new exam coming up? Will it be modified? If not, can I still use the current resources you provided to study for the new exam? Thank you for the helpful video.
Hey, I just looked and I didn't see it has a retirement date. If it gets retired, 100% a new A+ will be created with updated curriculum. A+ is like, _THE_ main entry-level IT cert so they won't remove it completely :P. Most of the old resources will probably still be applicable--there is generally a decent amount of overlap. Hope this helps!
I believed in one of your videos you mentioned being in contact with recruits to get contracts. If you've made a video on this can someone direct me to it, and if not. I would love it if you elaborated on the process of finding a good recruiter... or I guess getting found by a good recruiter. I'm not too familiar with this process and have only gotten jobs directly from the company.
I haven't made a video on this specifically, but I can add it to the list of videos to create :)
Great video man, I got into account management right out of college in the summer of 2021. I absolutely hate it and am already looking for a change.
Awesome,this step by step guide ready making me open minded and giving me motivation to learn and research more about IT and Business.
Glad it was helpful! Best of luck :>
Where can I find mentors in this field? Or how i can do it alone?
Such a good video..I’m planning to change my career from non IT to IT and this is video has answered most of my questions including work experience..thanks and keep up the good informative work.
What is the best program to get certifications, that includes CCNA, and all those nice certs…besides My Computer Carrier. Please help!!! One for those that have no help.
I’m not 100% sure about the question, it for CCNA, cbt nuggets and boson are both really decent. Search RUclips for Keith barker ccna as well :)
What is your opinion of the Google IT certification?
I've been thinking about this one a lot recently. I even watched a few videos on it. I will probably make a video about it in the future, but to answer your question, so far, it seems quality and seems like a decent place to start. It just doesn't seem to have the presence on indeed etc., but that's kind of expected with most new certs!
Awesome video. So much insight packed into 25 minutes 👏🏽
I build data centers but have been looking into getting into IT and cyber security very informative thank you
This is so brother thank you I'm getting some good insight!
Hi sir..... Iam saraniya....I finished my MCA degree in india.... Now iam in USA and searching job... I didn't have experience how can I enter into job sir.... Help me to get a job sir...
Hello saraniya. If you have a degree already, if you can, I would just move to a metro area and just start applying for jobs. There are so so many! A+ also helps for getting into the field. I know it's hard to move, but your chance of finding a job increase QUITE a bit, and getting that initial experience will really help you in the long run. Thanks for watching :)
22:35 do you have some kind of background chime that turns off when you're not speaking?
Hmmm strange, not that I know it :\
Do you have to have a degree in IT to get an interview?
Absolutely not! Most of my friends who work in IT don't have degrees. A degree is just one part of the equation and can be easily satisfied with certs or experience. Hope this helps!
I want to transition into IT, specifically Laboratory Information Systems. I am currently a Medical Lab Scientist, should I take this as well?
Hey CaramelDreams, I'm not 100% sure what is required for Lab InfoSystems, but this is a good guide for breaking into IT in general so it probably wouldn't hurt :P
Iv been searching your videos. I would love some comments on remote or a video on remote working. For example: Someone like me who is very family oriented and recently forced to change careers. Is it likely to be able to land remote work being new to this industry? Do you always have to go into work or are there companies that only work remotely? Also, Iv watched your video on a day in the life. There are a lot of videos online but no one ever mentions time. How may hours do you normally work a day? Is it super stressful? Please make a video for the average working person switching career and what to expect..... Thank you. I love your videos and you are by far the best out here. Keep them coming
Hey, thanks so much for watching! I'll try to answer in-line:
_Is it likely to be able to land remote work being new to this industry?_
I know one thing for sure, it's much more likely now than it was 4 years ago. As long as your Resume/Portfolio is looking good and you apply consistently, your chance aren't bad.
_How may hours do you normally work a day? Is it super stressful?_
My job is a really strange job. It's a mixture of Cloud and Software Engineering. I honestly do about 4 hours of "labor" per day on this job and the stress is like a 2/10, maybe even 1/10. You will run into this a lot with Software Engineering at large companies that aren't Amazon, lol.. My Tech jobs were pretty similar, as long as you aren't doing consulting.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I will definitely make a video on this. I added your comment and name to my list. I'm going to get a helper to help me with editing so I can put out more content, but I'm doing a lot of stuff right now so it's pretty hard haha. But yeah, seriously thank you :)
Would you know if internationals tend to face more difficulties trying to get cyber security jobs in US?
If they aren't citizens or permanent residents, no doubt it's going to be harder for them, unfortunately. If you are SUPER skilled though, H1B is possible I guess, but I don't really know about it
This is the best video I’ve come across on this subject. Love the clear outlined steps
I'm glad you liked it! I'm thinking to remake this video and make it a bit better. I ALWAYS reference this video to people cuz this question is asked so often haha. Thanks so much for watching btw:)
I’m in WA State also! Currently interviewing for an IT help desk position in Olympia. Appreciate your knowledge :)
Hey Jen! Glad to see another Washington person haha. Best of luck with your interviews, I hope you get em!
thanks man I just beat cancer and after treatment I lost my job and was thrust into this god awful job market these tips will def help on the way

Yoooo Josh you’re wife is insane 😂😂😂 you made a good choice being with her “completed the CCNA first” I’m sure not very many people would expect that; I don’t even know her and I’m proud! I just completed the CCNA 08/09
I'm in Walla Walla 😂
Thank you for your awesome video, it really helped me to know where to go, and how to do that.
No problem! Thanks so much for watching!!
How to get started you should be teaching us DNS, HTTP/S, etc…..
Hello Josh, I have an AAS degree in Cybersecurity and recently wanted to go to WGU. The program I chose, the B.sc in IT, requires some certs, but because of my Associate's it looks like the completion requirement for many of the classes has already been met, would you still recommend the degree with no certs despite most of my credits not transferring?
I would probably choose the degree that has the most classes satisfied by your AAS degree, then I would get any certs I cared about afterwards. That's just me though :). (This is actually what I did with my first BS degree, (BSIT))
@@JoshMadakor Fair enough, I appreciate your response.
I recently resigned from my position at a call center, loved the company, loved the colleagues, but the customers weren't so friendly, I know from the start they wouldn't be but it weighed me down. I wanted to get my Bachelor's so I could try to come back to the company (left on great terms), to further qualify me for advanced positions in the future.
Good to see that your local AND super helpful! Lol. After seeing one of your videos, I'm starting WGU!
Thank you! Very informative video. However, what you say at around 16:00 about a small town (btw 34k people is not small at all where I’m from lol) makes me feel hopeless…the biggest town within a 2-hour radius is 10k people. Most of these small towns are 4K or less.😅

Thank you so much Josh. Looking forward to sharing my experience with you as i start my journey into IT. Thanks bro.
Hey Idrisou, sounds good! Best of luck with the career! Hope you find stuff inside IT that you really enjoy!
my dawg i literally clapped out loud in my room from how succinct and actually useful the information that was presented in this video you are a fucking legend!
This content can be used in a high paid college. Wonder how much effort is used to created college curriculum, if this one person with a RUclips channel can give so much more value.
Which is a better combo certification to work from home in IT? 1)CEH W/Splunk 2)CCNA W/CCNP or 3) CySA+ W/CEH
Is there still a prospect for a 58 year old with no experience in IT but with some basic to intermediate knowledge
This is REALLY solid advice, even a game plan. I'm going to refer this to someone I know who is in this situation.
Am about to start a course course at a college soon. I want to start with comptia a+ however, there's a bundle course where you can do comptia n+ and cisco routing and switching all at once. My question is do you think it's advisable to study them all at once or is it too much?
Got Project +, ITIL v4 already.
In the coming months getting A +, Net + and Sec +
How’d it go?😊
@@IyoniAdeMacy N+ Was a no go...I'm not into networking. Couldn't for the life of christ get it.
I studied super hard and barely got Sec + but I did.
Its been a tough road since many want you to already have experience and nobody wants to train anyone.
@@johnshepard7630 uh I think my comment got deleted lol, but start doing projects & set up a github portfolio, Josh has a vid on that, that’ll be experience & watch other vids on projects & do those, teach it etc, network as well!! Also Josh has a vid on how to pass any IT certification. It’s basically on how to study correctly by understanding and not memorizing. I hope it gets better for you!!
I have Google IT support Certification is it enough or I have to take Comptia A+?
Hey Abdullah! You don't _HAVE_ to take CompTIA A+. CompTIA might match more keywords, but the Google cert gives adequate knowledge in my opinion. If you are worried, maybe do some extra projects for your resume to stand out :). Thanks for watching!

How many job applications per day do you recommend doing? What do you recommend for someone who is not working and has time on their hands?
