JOB SEARCH

I don't know of any job openings in Dallas, but I can tell you something that will make you sick:

My best friend from college moved back to Dallas after school, and much like yourself, sold car stereos (at Highland appliance). One of his customers thought he was a good salesman and recommended him to a company called Americable that sold networking products. He worked there for a while until one of his clients hired him away. He's still with that client, and he just got promoted to regional sales manager. That client? Cisco Systems.

My best advice. Do your resume up real nice in html. Make sure you list all of your relevant experience. Post it on all of the major job sites, and even if you're just looking for something entry level in IT, you will get some hits--if nothing else, just because your resume is in html. If you get your foot in the door, make sure you get some certifications--they go a long way in your next job hunt. Realize that you may have to hop around a bit at first to get to where you are paid decently.

IT professionals are very much in demand. I would reccomend going to one of the dozens of IT specific recruiting agencies. IT is a unique field right now, with much more demand than actual candidates. Many companies are now dependent on these firms to fill their openings.

Talk to them and see what they have to say -- and at the least they can point you in the right direction. At best they will probably find a job for you. The recruiters generally get a commission for successfully filling positions, so it's in their best intrests to match you with a job that needs someone with your specific skills.

Iroc It :

Although this won´t help you (unfortunately), did you know that Germany desperately needs IT specalists? IT classes at college are up and coming, but we don´t have enough men to satisfy the entrpreneur´s needs...Schroeder even wanted to "import" 5000 Indians because they have such a big knowledge of IT.

There are plenty of jobs in Germany...isn´t the situation the same in the US? Just curious....

IROC it,

If you're interested in IT positions in the DFW area (or anywhere for that matter), use a job search engine. You can search for jobs by region. Here in the DFW area, the hottest companies are tech companies. It's one reason I left Houston. The place is booming, especially the telecom industry. Here are a few of the better ones you can check out (all of these are great for IT jobs) :
