    It seems that i cant edit my post.. But i forgot to put my question before my resume lol.

    I wanted to know if someone can critique my resume and give an opinion if my previous working experience is enough to land a network administrator job , if not what steps should i take to end up in a job like that.

    I'd drop the summary/objective section completely--you can add context in your cover letter (you have one, right?). Employers probably won't care about your high school diploma, so you can drop that as well. Look into adding more quantitative bullet points. For example, instead of saying "Performed moves, additions and changes of workstations for various users," say "Performed moves, adds, and changes of workstations for over 300 users within a 6 month period." You get the idea.

    To answer the latter, I think you have some good experience and certs (and secret clearance, presumably), so I don't think finding a job will be a problem.

    Education/Certifications at the end of your resume. Take out High School. Don't just bullet your descriptions, explain (briefly) what you did.

    Not bad but I would do it more like this. Also add the OS you work with to your summary and work experience. Your work experience was backward Check you spelling as well and you don't need Certified after A+ You have it above. And if you put it in a PDF or word document we could see the format and fonts you are using and spacing.
