Well for starters, where are you applying for jobs? A+, as a cert, is suitable for computer shops & hardware stores. A+ is not so important at the corporate level because hardware is usually spec'd and companies rarely fix it. CCNA is fine, but realistically, finding a entry level job with just a CCNA is going to be tough. If you want to get into an entry level job you'd be better to focus on Windows 7 and Outlook, get your foot in the door and then do the CCNA.
There is also communication skills, personal skills (how you react to other people), patient levels & just having a generally positive attitude. People seem to always think that education is the most important part of a career. It's not always that way. IT is a "service" job so people skills are incredibly important.
