By employed I mean get a job in the industry either offline or online. Ideally something that would highly likely remain in-demand in the near future.

    Honestly? Pretty much anything. Not a senior level position unless you’re willing to really fudge your resume but entry or mid level - sure. If you put your nose to the grindstone you can learn to do pretty much anything in a year… that’s a long fucking time.

    What kind of IT were you looking at? System administration? IT Support/Help Desk? Development? Networking? Ops?

          Sounds like experience.

          In that case the employee was just a good at selling their mediocre skillset. Knowing (and gaming) the rules is probably half the game.

      Thanks for responding! Honestly, I’m looking for a profession that is most likely to remain in-demand for the foreseeable future. Secondly, well, the income potential, of course. What would you recommend?

        You really can’t go wrong landing an IT help desk position at a moderate sized non-tech company. You’ll be an essential employee and get a lot of recognition for your work.
