Got an amazing job!

After what has seemed to be a # of years and challenges, I have finally got an IT job that will challenge me and expose me to the latest tech with a managed services provider.

My main reason for this post is to inspire others looking for IT jobs as I know it can be difficult and seem insurmountable at times. I applied to so many places ranging from local to the greater Nashville area and always got what would seem like a guarantee of job placement only to have a recruiter never follow up or respond to my emails/ phone calls.

All I can say is don't give up, stay positive, and always move ahead even if that means fixing computers on the side just to stay in IT. 👍

Essentially, it's my responsibility to prevent problems on a number of workstations and servers. Some would consider it entry level I suppose but considering the pay, benefits, and hardware that I will deal with on a daily basis, this is a huge step in the right direction for me.
