[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell him to start with a Help Desk position. [/quote] Help desk is mostly offshored.[/quote] Yep. My employer (we did corporate IT support) went from 700 US employees to a couple of dozen between 2018 and 2022. [/quote] No true for local government agencies. I recruit for DC, MD, VA, and GA state agencies. I get multiple Help Desk postings a month. [/quote] How easy do you think it would be for a 19 yr old with no college education and/or experience in helpdesk getting this type of job? Not to mention that they pay probably sucks.[/quote] Well, I actually think a lot about this because I recruit for the jobs. A good internship or workforce training program is sometimes enough. And since you mentioned he's 19 with no education or experience, I imagine that any pay is good pay. Average rate is $25/hr.[/quote]
