Well I just started my second job in the It Industry making over 55k now and have been in the field about 3 years now. I got my first job right out of college (associates degree) and started with no real experience and no certs. I got my A+ about a year and a half ago and just left with a salary of 47k with just my A+ so. My current job that i'm at now was asking for A+ and Network+ or relative experience. So I think that the certs are def a great way to get your foot in the door but i also feel that experience is plays a big role. But to make the big $$$ certs are def the way to go with along with your experience. Good Luck

Congrats bro..your post gives me hope.

How many hours a week do you work for that salary because we my girlfriend and i only earn around 20 thousand together so thats not much.
but the job demands here are much higher.
Because employers are asking mcse/mcsa network experience ccna, .net, citrix, itil, linux, novell for only a call center job.

MCSE/MCSA for call center job? wtf?

Either you read it wrong or you seriously need to relocate. That is absurd. I can make $20k mowing lawns man.
