Honestly. I have applied for everything and they either aren't hiring or want 5+ years of experience. Im 19, i've got experience working for the State as a technology intern doing pc repair, cabeling, etc... I was also a PC Technician Intern at a very popular computer repair business, and i've worked in retail (compusa and circuit city) selling networking and pc upgrades equipment. I've taken 2 years of Computer Systems Technology and graduated at the top of my class. It's a technical center but college acredited and I got First Place at the Regional PC Repair Competition and could've went to state but was working at the time. So im perfect entry level person but I can't find ANYONE that will take me. I've been looking for almost 6 months now. I've come to the conclusion that Richmond is just plain horrible for a tech career. What I would want is a computer repair career, if not that then computer retail and im pretty much at the point where I wont even be able to get a technical related job. This is honestly BS, I don't think I should be working at Ukrops or Kroger bagging groceries and stocking with my sort of experience.
