[QUOTE="fett527, post: 2182663, member: 5458"] My brother: He attended Cedarville University and he knew technology was what he wanted to be involved with. He went the MIS degree route. The most important things he did were summer jobs and internships. He took summer jobs building PCs at small, local system builders. When those ran out he worked at Best Buy in the computer department selling PCs (he liked this as a college student since he could use the discount to goodies). He then took an internship (he worked closely with his counselor on finding the right company) with a company in Cincinnati in their IT department working mostly with network hardware. He decided he liked it and worked hard on cultivating the relationship. He had to go back to Best Buy after he graduated, but he began working for the company he interned with in less than a year as his former boss worked hard to make sure to get him in the first position he had available. I was floored by his starting salary too. So, there are ways. Just have to find what works for you. [/QUOTE]
