Questiong concerning jobs and salary expectation

Pandoragear

First thread posted and not sure if this is the right section for these question.

I'm about to graduate in the Fall of 2011; be getting my bachelor degree in Management information system (MIS). what kind of salary and job can I get with a MIS degree along with CompTia A+, Network+ and Security+. My work experience had been a Assistance Manager in sale department for 7 year and currently I landed an Intern in the IT area dealing with server and learning about Active Directory. How much can I expect the salary or the job i can land with my credential. Any input would be helpful and thank you.

Anywhere from $20k to $150k.

Its a broad question, and all depends on your experience, skills, personal skills with interviewing, region, list goes on..

Also, there's no guarantee that you'll find a job right away. You may even have to start at the help desk level just to get your foot in the IT door.

Well I graduated last year with a BS. It took me 3 months to get a job as a desktop support. Now I'm supporting a branch site by myself making roughly 40k. Hope that gives you an idea.

Thank you for all the response and helpful information on general idea. I didn't realize MIS with 3 certificate be making that little when starting out, was hoping in the 56k and up base on salary.com. I guess I'm expecting unrealistic figure; sight... And if all else fail, go for the MBA while working part time to gain more experience.
