Accounting.

With your MIS and accounting, you will be very marketable.

i don't particularly care for accounting. no offense to anyone in accounting, of course 🙂
 

In addition to the other excellent advice here, what are you really into? What would you do for fun or for curiosity even if nobody paid you for it? That intensity will get you a long way.

 
I DON'T hire so many MCSE because they don't know what they claim too, and so many canidates have those certs thay really aren't worth much anymore.

SAN, Cisco, and yes security are very hot right now.

Or go back to school for your MBA. By doing MIS that is one of the purposes of the MIS degree, to bring in managers that are tech savvy.

Too bad the the better MBA programs require around two years industry experience 🙁

18 more months for me 🙂

Nothing wrong with that imo. You want people with EXPERIENCE not just people who have learnt through lectures and text books.

Industry observers are expecting a hot IT job market this year with companies clamoring to hire
experienced[/] tech professionals with several stand-out skill sets.

That doesn't help you out or me 😛

In a few months I'll start applying to some new companies and see if I can get myself on to a nice graudate scheme at a big company :thumbsup:
