I know I do...
I live in Southern VA and currently have an AS in Network Security. I love the people I work with and make a decent sum of money. But I am not doing what I want to do. Network Tech/Engineer/Admin all seem to require 5+ years with a Bachelor's, or 7-8 with out a BS with similar experience.
Now, I am enrolled in school finishing my BS in Internetworking Technologies and plan to have my Net+, Sec+, and CCNA by the end of the year (BS should be done in 2 years). I just feel like what I am doing now, even with certs and working on BS, will not be enough experience.
I am looking at moving to NYC after I finish my BS, any input as to how the job market would welcome someone with a Secret, Net+, Sec+, CCNA, MCP, and a BS with 3-4 years of experience?
