After a bit of career advice.
I'm currently working in a software support role which i enjoy but the pay isn't great and i think with my qualification should be on more
I have the following;
National Diploma in I.t (Not that good i know)
Advanced aprenticeship in I.T
2 MCP (XP and Sever 2003)
Will hopefully complete the other 2 by the end of the year for a MCSA in Server 2003.
I also have experience of working with SQL 2000 & 2005, i can also write some SQL/OSQL code, and i have experience in working with asp, asp.net and CSS (i'm by no means a developer but could look at code and semi understand it)
I have been in my current job for a little over two years, where i have gained all experience
With the above qualifications and experience does anyone know what kind of salary i should be aiming for? i have a figure in mind but just want to know what people think i should be aiming for and what sort of jobs i should be going for
I would like to gain some more experience of server 2003 administration for my MCP's later in the year
