I live out in Arizona so I can't be a lot of help with local jobs but I got my current job by posting on Monster. Education is dependent a lot on what experience you can show on your resume. If you make a resume for monster be sure to put as much as you can on it since Employers will find you based on keyword searches. A large number of the jobs in this field now are remote so be prepared to apply to jobs out of state that may require some on site followed by being 100% remote.

Good luck with your job hunt.

hi VJers ... just want to know some information regarding JOBS Hunting in Fairfield, California or nearby place. I'm from Information Technology industry. Do i need to get some certifications or exams to be able to find a stable job.

Check in the NAPA area also. You may just want to call up one of the local companies, ie Jelly Belly and speak with someone in the IT department. Ask them for suggestions on how to go about finding job leads. My brother is an IT guy in Vallejo and he says there are head-hunters who can also help out. You may also want to go to one of the temp agencies because you may be able to sample a few of the "tech" companies before settling into one. The commute direction is 580 and 680 southbound so you may want to look northbound to avoid traffic.

Good Luck

The longer it takes to introduce yourself the less you've actually accomplished

It might help also to narrow your search. IT is a pretty broad category these days so where is most of your experience?

Phone support

Deskside Support

Systems Administrator

Security Administrator

Enterprise Systems Management

Data Center Support/Management

Software Development

etc...

Since IT is a wide field narrowing your search on the job sites can help you better find a job that fits your talents. If you've had a lot of experience working with one specific product or OS you can use those in your keyword search as well since some jobs require very narrow experience.

I know it can be tough finding a new job in this field it often feels like your experience only applies in the environment that you're used to however I'm sure there's something in your experience that will help you stand out and bridge the gap to your next job.
