Looking for IT job in melb

[Zippo]

One thing I learnt in my quest for work was that I wanted to work for an internal helpdesk rather than for another company that helps others - for the reasons Doubledealer mentioned

Internal helpdesk - not really an issue if you cant solve something and need to spend time on finding the solution (within reason)

hey guy thanks for the support! Should I take the first job that is offered to me??? I am at the stage where steady income sounds good. I had an interview with a shop where if i get the job id be handling sintallation of small servers and networking. something i like and would be a good experience and chance for me to learn the skills needed for what i want to do.

i have an interview with another place for a helpdesk role, not as interested as i dont want to be on the phones. it requires that i take calls and occasionally b in the field to install these pos systems or install the software. but it gives me a step in the door to the it world and at lesat some experience.

i dont know if i shoulf just take the 1st offer or say no and find a job i want but that may require more months of searching an no guarantee as mostly all jobs require some experience which i have none and i may end up having to settle for a help desk role.


another question to all the guys in IT. I enjoy IT and have learnt things like dhcp, dns, active directory , permissions, switches routers, ip addressing, subnetting.

Did you guys understand all of this well when u applied for jobs??? Whilst i have learnt and done it during my course i am not confident and have trouble remembering it as i dont use it everyday. do u find that you pick it up during work and you understand it more when applying it at work because i honestly dont remember alot and and wondering if im the only one that has trouble remembering all if any of what i learnt during my course!! thanks guys
