Think I'll make your links section my homepage 😁 this is great
Man I remember 4 years ago working a job I wanted to leave for IT and found your videos. I really thought in the back of my mind there's no way in hell I was going to be able to get an IT job. Boy was I wrong.
How did you go about it?
How did you go about getting it?
@@UncleSpam1 First thing first I checked my ego at the door and humbled myself. That way I was open to learn from any and everyone. Next I learned the basics, from what is a computer to how to secure a computer. Lastly I tailored my resume to the job I wanted.
@@jaytuff2212 I had a plan of what I wanted to do, studied, and then tailored my resume. The resume will get you an interview, but knowledge all get you the job. Please note I never said you need a cert or degree.
@@mrmacho41 nice
I love how you never undermine or hate on other creators. Wish you prosperity and peace.
I have no IT knowledge, I will be starting classes for cybersecurity soon, so I’m looking to get knowledge in the basics. You’re vídeo is awesome. It’s giving me great starting points on the basics, and great advice on just how to get started, than you sir.
Been watching your videos for awhile. Never thought it would be possible to land a job without a degree but I was wrong thanks for all the help you give everyone!
Awesome helpful content! AD and AAD are important. Add a use to Active directory AD and recover a deleted user via admin tools.
So I have my A+ and am working on my Net+. I ended up making a virtual lab with a server 2016 and learning how to make a domain, seeing group policy, managing users and groups, and in the past I've done some hardware upgrades to laptops and then built my pc now. With all of that when I had an interview I told then I'm new and have no enterprise experience but this is what ive done and am doing on my own and I want to learn. Be honest about being new. I start in less than 2 weeks for help desk.
Also looking good dude congrats
I feel hope for the first time in a while. It's finally feeling possible to get out of a job I'm miserable in. Thank you for your channel
Appreciate all the homies like you man. Stay blessed
I'm considering a career change and this is so helpful! Thank you!!
You are way ahead of the curb! In a decade 45-50% of jobs will be lost it AI & Automation...so you are definitely on the right track.
Frfr same
@@iveyhealth2266 facts
Same here! I have a barbers license but now I don't feel comfortable with the job for many reasons. I already an extensive knowledge of computer skills so might as well change my career to something I really love to do!
Career changer here too!! I'm 51yrs old and worked in healthcare for 26+yrs. Zero IT experience but I'm determined to change my life for this.
I'm going to go for all of them, i'm so glad i watched before taking network+, I will now be going for CCNA.
You look great bro! Glad to see you back making content.
I leaned a lot from this video and I must say the side notes and tips already overwhelmed me and I haven't even started the course yet but I believe I will do good .Again thanks for this advice.
Wow, what a great advice ! Thank you 🙏
Thank you! This was so helpful!
Much appreciate this solid guide and tips to get help beginners and even professionals like myself. I can attest to the note taking tip here. I cannot emphasize how important it is to take good notes and document. This skill will make you stand out among management and business stakeholders and or customers.
Man this is great content. Thanks!
Hi I am a recent graduate with a degree in MIS looking for an entry level job in the field. I am following your channel and I hope I meet my goals! Been a tough pandemic! Cheers!
I’m studying for Network+ and this video will help allot, I was looking for a way to better document my study and projects. Im going to look more into ticketing maybe i can use it.
Your channels needs more love. I hope to get into IT soon
Great information! Well done.
Thanks brodie this is gonna help me a lot
I have a liberal arts degree and am currently studying for the a+ and CCNA. I spent a few months in a call center for insurance, spent a few months in sales for a cellular provider. I have a LOT of interview requests. Still going through them now and don’t have an “end” answer but, from what I’m understanding from this process is that your best bet, as an entry level soon-to-be IT professional, is to look for contracts or other short-term opportunities. That seems to be where the industry really looks for actual entry-level. Had an interview with the contractor today, and I’m currently lining one up with the contractee. These will especially be perfect for you if you’re currently in school as you know exactly how long you’re committed to that organization for and can plan accordingly.
This is a great time to start landing IT jobs as well.
Very usefull, ty for tips!
Great information for 2022. I'm definitely motivated to revive and become more active with my website. Thanks Z-Dawg!
For sure, good luck!
Awesome stuff 👏.
This was a really interesting video... I'm definitely only interested in learning Active Directory and taking good notes... and... I don't feel comfortable with all of the rest you mentioned... Seriously... Maybe I'm just too introverted or weird... I even deactivated my LinkedIn yesterday (I didn't really use it)... but I guess you have to do certain things to actually get a job...
Thanks for sharing! I'll definitely check your videos and links...
Soft skills are so important. I love technology, networking, servers. I could learn all the info and get all the certs out there but I can't even do a simple helpdesk job because I can't deal with people due to being on the spectrum. You go to an interview and constantly feel over and over that people don't want you in their team. Being a noc engineer or something, in a server room of a data center dealing with devices would fit me so well, but to get there you need to amass several years of experience from somewhere. And with my soft skills, or complete lack of, I could onky amass several years of being a janitor or I dunno.
I'm now working with azure and service now tickets but I'm not an admin and the only reason they even hired me in the first place is to communicate with other admins across the world in our company because no one else here speaks English at all, lol. I feel such a strong impostor syndrome and can't even properly do what they want. Dread every dya going there but I wanna keep engaging in the technology. Ugh..
Thank you for sharing this! Your videos are extremely helpful!
For sure! I’m happy to hear that!
Get innnn more content :)
Graduated college with multiple certifications and the day after graduating, started working at a Fortune 500 company and I love it!
It’s about location to me…I have a bachelors in IT and Security plus in Winston Salem,NC, living the dream as a third shift security guard 👍
@@drkdrive move man, and/or remote work. There’s a hole in that story you need to plug somewhere
@@zunetrav4 ?
@@zunetrav4 so true
May God bless you. Thank you.
Very educative and eye opening. This is coming at the very best time of my life. Would you take me in as your student?
Thank you
Nice stuff
Great stuff! Very informative bro!
Thank you brother. Hope you’re doing well!
@@Itcareerquestions I am brother, I am! And I have to say thank you because your advice helped me get my first IT position. I've been in IT for 6 months now on the help desk and I'm loving every minute of it!
@@grandnagus1 that’s awesome brother! So very excited and happy for you! Keep on going!
You rock!
You look amazing!
No, you look amazing!
I’m 30 years old and work for the post office I really want something else better in my life I’m going back to school in the fall just want to know which field in IT I need to work on more to get that dream career
Hello industry colleague from across the pond, thanks for your quality videos, I noticed you lost some weight, I hope all is good with you, and if so, well done, that suits you well and you look much better, I know the feeling :-)
I love the note taking advice! However the real problem is getting your co-workers to READ them!!!!
I want to make a career change and go into Cybersecurity, but I have no knowledge of IT. I work as a technical support specialist but that’s it. I decided to start with learning on Coursera and learn the basics and study and get the COMPTIA A+, and COMPTIA Network +, and start as IT support. Get good experience for a year or two and then get the COMPTIA Security +, CYSA+ and go in to cybersecurity. I’ve also though of going back to college and get a IT degree, or take the cybersecurity program at ucf. Not sure which route to take as far as education but that’s what I’m thinking of doing. If anyone has any advise on here please tell me. Much appreciated!!
Very good, you know I am in africa, my objectif is to find a way to sel myself to get an international job.
let me practice your advice and see the result. Thanks enough
What should you study for the CompTIA test?
Hi I.T Career Questions what I never understand is how to get the experience in the job you want. I want to become a system administrator but no one wants me because I don’t have the 2-3 years in experience doing that. How do you make the jump? I’m a help desk/desktop engineer and am not allowed to touch the systems in that way.
Hello, Sir. What skills do you recommend for a project manager? Please advise. Thank you.
Hey Zack, so I understand that IT is slightly different from Soft Dev, but will these tips also apply to Soft Dev? I'm nearly finished with my BA in Soft Dev and will be job hunting pretty soon. Thanks!
I’m not sure how active directory would be helpful but the rest absolutely.
I'm 22 and Got my GED Last year in July. 3 months later I quit my job. 2 months after that I got my first HelpDesk job at a MSP. No Experience and No certs (yet. I take my first exam this weekend) I've been here for a little over a month and I absolutely love it! If it wasn't for your videos I would've never taken initiative. let alone know that to get into the IT field you didn't need to go to college. I'm in the first Job that I actually look forward to going to in the morning. Thank you!
Yea right nobody would hire you without experience or certificates
@@michaelbryant3643 lol I thought so too until I got the job
Hey on certification I saw the top 4 what about ITIL 4?
💯
I don’t see Azure Active Directory vids in your description.
Blessings

Whats more valuable to a employer a associates degree or a+. I am wanting to do desktop support. Any tips on how to get past the phone interview? That is about the furthest I have gotten in the interview process. Does that mean my resume is good enough? Is the reason I can't get move forward to the next steps because something I said and how I answered their questions. The phone interview is really stressful for me and I wish I could just skip to the in person interview as I am afraid they are judging me without taking a chance to get to know me first.
A+, but if you can get some other train with it like ITIL. Interviews..... I suggest be confident. I want the job you have to snatch it out of their hand. If you don't know the answer just say you don't know. Don't lie in a Interview. Do not talk money until they bring it up and have a range of 6k. Do research on the company before the interview, they like that shit. That's it.
Unequivocally an associates looks better than an A+ anyone disagreeing is in denial. But work experience>all
good tips. I'd also add that there are certain (non-technical) behaviourial traits that make you a valuable IT pro. I call it 'the three R'. :)
What r the three R?
@@lertub Resourceful, Responsive, Reliable....I covered it in my last video. :)
@@ITLIFER thanks. I did not see it. Appreciate it. I’m new to IT. Just retired from law enforcement and looking to new career. Do you have a channel that I can sub to?
@@lertub yes. Hit profile icon and you can check it out.
@@ITLIFER 👍👍👍👍
I don't see the note keeping course from Heath Adams/TCM Academy when I click through the link. Did they take the course down since this video came out?
No the note taking part is most of his courses. You can find that section under the Practical Ethical Hacking course for sure.
I took a course that covered A+, Net+, Sec+ and Cloud+ and am now in the process of certifying (already have A+) but i don’t have any experience in IT. Will having all 4 and 0 experience benefit me when looking to get started in the industry? I think I would like to have a career in Security or cloud.
Can you drop the course? It sounds convenient!
@@emmaliluevano8682 i took an instructor led course with New Horizons. It was via zoom because of covid. We went 4 months straight. 5 weeks A+, 3 weeks Net+, 3 weeks Sec+, 3 weeks Cloud+. I think it was close to $10k but my school was paid for, thank God.
Im getting out of the military soon, and I was wondering when i should start applying for jobs? I get out in 3-6 months
The military offers a skill bridge program that lets you intern. Look it up asap, you can start 180 days before your ETS. You’re already behind the game
When applying for jobs, do they typically ask if you have tattoos? I have full sleeves but it can easily be covered with a long sleeve.
As far as I know only they only ask in the military at meps
I've never been asked nor have I asked folks I was interviewing. There is typically a face to face aspect of an interview be it in person or video call. If it were important to the interviewer, they'd take note there. I do t think sleeves would be an issue though. Face and neck maybe, depending on the role.
Just started in IT at $20/hr... is that a decent starting pay?? Better than what I was making haha
Hey brother Zach, do you still have a discord?
Should I get 2 degrees in IT or should I focus on getting out there?
(Currently in school for 1 IT degree)
What degree are you currently pursuing?
@@brauliol Computer and communications technology with a focus on Infastructure
@@Exicor Good start. Great communication skills is key. Complete your one degree and get out there. You've got this! Good luck!
Work experience>all unless you graduate from a prestigious 4 year school and want to work for faang or something as your first job.
Plsss answer my question plssssss
Is there a Sys admin course in college
What are you looking to get into? Have you checked the college's website for list of IT programs and courses?

The truth about I.T. jobs, they are the new blue-collar jobs. You are often put on salary, and work long hours, holidays, weekends, and nights after working all day. You are asked to complete projects not based off of anything but fiscal quarters. You never get away from your job, as you're on call 24/7 365. Management doesn't care about the 1000 things you got right but the few things that slipped through the cracks, mainly due to being overworked and unrealistic deadlines. C.I.O.s often go against your recommendations and when things go as you said they would, they blame you.

I’m learning network +. Gotta admit it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever had to learn. You need photographic memory for this field I’m learning to hard way.
I got my net+ awhile back. I know it seems like alot brother, but alot of the information crosses over into eachother making note cards and actually applying the things you learn helps good luck and keep working!
