Break into IT - How to Land Your Dream Job in IT




Break into IT - How to Land Your Dream Job in IT

" To anyone who wants to enjoy a career in IT"

My name is Paul Browning and I worked as a police officer in the UK from 1988 to 2000. While I enjoyed the job immensely I felt I wanted to take on a new challenge, I already had an interest in computers. I had attended an course on PC assembly and learned a little bit about computer networking.

I started to study for some Microsoft exams and began to apply for jobs in the IT industry. I landed a helpdesk job but as you can imagine, I quickly became bored doing password resets. I studied hard and passed some more exams and then got a role doing network support for Cisco systems in the UK.

I later left to start my own IT company offering training and consulting services to companies both in the UK and internationally. I sold the company in 2008 and now run an online Cisco training company.

During the time I trained students I helped many hundreds of them get their break into a career in IT. I watched them move from helpdesk roles into networking and often into freelance consulting contracts or even their own companies. I’ve also worked with hundreds of IT managers who have shared with me the things they look for when looking to hire IT staff for their companies. I’ve even been through the process myself when I was looking to get out of the police force.

I see people making the same mistakes time and time again when they are trying to get a job in IT:

  • Sending resumes out and hoping for the best
  • Waiting for jobs to appear online before applying
  • Sending generic resumes which will never be read
  • Failing to prepare properly for technical interviews
