Do you have any certs? Like A+, MCP, MCDST etc etc. If you dont, you should atleast get any entry level cert and keep on looking.What next?

If you want the security field Security + from Comptia is generally a good place to start.
Might be an idea to just get MCP first maybe the XP (70-270) exam to help get your foot in the door, you could move on from there and work up to MCSA + security with the comptia exam.
hope this helps and good luck -

What the distance you are willing to travel? Looking on monster.com, dice.com, and a few other job boards show a lot of IT positions over here in Orange County. Things are starting to boom again in the Irvine Spectrum area in South OC.
