    Just wondering what the job market is like for 1st / 2nd support roles? I gained my MCSE in NT4 back in 2000 then upgraded to WIN 2000 the following year i was employed for 7 months in at the local council department but left as there was no chance of training or promotion. Obviously i have been out of the market for some time and lost a lot of knowledge in that time. having been drifting from one crap job to the next i am thinking of getting back in to IT. Is it really worth me doing any more exams or am i just wasting my time?

    It's always worth training.

    I'm currently employed as an agency LGV driver in Bristol, I'm training at home using Skillstrain on N+ (currently book 2), but I'm still applying for various IT jobs as they come along, so far all negative.

    Check this forum for other training ideas, there is a lot to consider.

    Hi and welcome to CF!

    It all depends what you want to do, and you never want to stop learning, whatever your job!

    There are many places for support people, and as you have done this before that will get you plus points.
