I am a graduate with an Associate degree in Computer Networking. I would like to know where are the best places to get entry level jobs, and start my career in IT. I do not have any certications, and don't have any hands on experience. Can someone give me some advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What have you tried so far?

The only place I could think of is the computer center at schools.

If you are just starting out, try a temporary staffing place that specializes in IT techs. That could jump start you.

When my dh did his batchelors in comupter networking, the college he went to had all kinds of job fairs. They were calling us probably for about 18 months after he graduated.

Well, the main things that I am looking for is what states to start out in. I stay in Louisiana, and it is not a very technology oriented state. Very hard to find entry level jobs here in my field. So could anyone let me know what the best cities and states would be to start. I know that I will have to relocate, it is a definite for where I am at in my career.
