YAJobT: Information Technology Specialist

[Blueychan]

Hello,

What do IT Specialists do and how much do they make (assuming 3-4 years of experience)?

Thanks!

As little as the company can get away with...

That's a pretty generic title, what kind of IT specialist? Software, programming, networking, hardware...? The paycheck also depends on where you live. I remember when my buddy got out of college in NYC & got a job as a graphic designer for $25 an hour right off the bat. Sadly, that meant he still had to live with his parents due to the high cost of living in his area 😛

I used to make substantially more then this when I did it full-time but that was pre-recession and it was a different world.

Now I still do it part-time and considering how little I actually work the money is pretty good but not steady enough to live on so I have to have a "real" job too.

Yeah it's pretty a generic job title. The job involves everything, support, backup, network and virtualization, evt. What's the next step career-wise after being a so call "IT Specialist" for a several years.

Screw IT specialist. I'm an Intelligence Analyst where I prepare written and oral assignments based on the sophisticated collection, research, and analysis of both classified and unclassified information.

Sound fun? Join us at the NSA today! :twisted:

I'm in the process of developing a new crypto system for two-way radios. Now I need a patent agent.
