hey neha.. the industry is good and getting better , yes job vacancies are there....\nThe most important thing about this industry now adays is specializing. It is common knowledge that in every field use of it is common ; you name it , IT is there. so better specialize in a particular field before choosing a job . Some specializations are mainframes, systems, unix-linux- sun ,  or something like animations, \nmake a search on google or yahoo and find out what different job profiles are there.\n IT is too vast, just knowing how to program in C or C++ or Java or such is not enough. you also need to choose what job profile you want (knowing how to program  is for base level developers)like systems engineer, QA, security engineer, support....\n\na brief idea you can just go to any leading software companies site and look into their CAREERS section and you will get a good idea what positions are and fields are available in the market.

The Bachelor's Degree in IT is very marketable. That's a good one. \n\nI know it's a trend now to specialise down to the level of "E-Business Entrepreneurship", but that's awfully narrow. Worse, there's a danger that it's a bit trendy - that specialising in something this narrow and "current" might cause you problems in the future, when you try to find a job - especially if the employer isn't looking for "E-Business Entrepreneurship" specifically. \n\nWhat will your diploma actually read? Will it simply say "Information Technology"? If so, then that's perfect. If not, and it says "E-Business Entrepreneurship", then I'd be a bit wary, too.

Ok, you wanna serious answer? Computer info tech. Working for any company in their IT dept makes great money. I would apply at any and all large companies around. Even if right now you have to start with something small, go for it and work your way up. I know the hospital I work for pays their IT people top dollar. They make more than a lot of RNs there. Congrats, and screw these other guys, you'll never have to worry about money again.

You need to tell us more about your education.  Do you already know alot about computers, do you have any background, have you worked for a company doing this type of work?\n\nIf you have certifications, and have worked in the IT or Computer world, you have a good future, otherwise, it will be hard to get people to take you seriously.

there are lots of 'direction' you can go when you are an it student: \nweb (web design and programming),\ndatabase-expert (specialist in database),\ndatabase related (create program related to database for companies),\ngames related (create games),\nnetwork administrator (handle a network).\nsecurity-expert (knows system holes and how to secure them),\ncomputer science (related to artificial intelligence), etc.\n\nfind the thing that you are interest with, and study it well. cause each direction has their own thing to study. i believe if you study yours well enough, you will work in a very big company.\na little advice: experience is one of the key.

If not good in programming, there would be several sales, marketing jobs in IT sector. You can also join in the presales division of any vertical e.g.banking, manufacturing, retail etc.\nNot that every IT job is related to programming. You can join testing teams too.\n\nFuture of Philippines in good with lot's of also expected as next to India. DO not lose hopes. But in case you want to try as a begininer you can try in Asian countries first such as SIngapore, India, Malaysia, Japan etc first and then move to west.\n\nSee jobsite directing sites in Asia, US, Canada and also in Philipines\nhttp://jobguideforjobseekers.blogspot.com

I was an IT recruiter for years.  I just learned from talking with the programmers at my company. Also, I did a lot of research on the internet and took some classes.  One thing that my company did is have our programmers do a mini JAVA class (at that time it was the hot new thing) with anyone in the company who was interested.  It really helped.  I also tried to sit in on as many technical interviews as possible.  For example, if a technical manager was interviewing one of my candidates, I would ask if he minded me sitting in on the interview.  It usually wasn't a problem.\n\nSee if your company would do reimbursement for technical classes.

"Information technology (IT)[1] is a broad subject concerned with technology and other aspects of managing and processing information, especially in large organizations." wikipedia\n\nthere is a lot of excellent information available on the internet.

That depends on the area of the US you're considering and what specific field (software development, networking, etc.) you're pursuing.  \n\nThe demand for IT professional seems to be increasing.  So, you're probably entering the US job market at a good time.\n\nI have found that consulting firms pay the most initially and the salary increase are better than non-consulting companies.  \n\nPlus, if you are single, you can work for a large consulting firm that will send you anywhere in the US.  This might be beneficial as they would most likely cover the cost of your housing.  \n\nBased on your question, I would assume that you're from another country.  If so, then your language skills (English) is of most importance.\n\nI've been in IT for 16 years (US) and have met some really smart IT professionals from other countries.  The problem in many cases is their ability to speak English.  This is a MAJOR problem in my opinion.  \n\nI hope this helps and best wishes.\n\nScott....

Since the internet bubble burst in 2001, the IT market has been down and out until recently. Currently, it's picking up again and is very hot in most countries such as USA and India. But from experience,  the IT market is very volatile and changes every 4 yrs. like a yo-yo. So it's quite risky to be in this line of work.\nCurrently, there's also a great global demand for wealth/fund managers (asset management) by most major banks esp. in Singapore. If you have a degree in economics and commerce, then this would be the right time to get into this market.

All depends on ur interest... If you are inclined to the IT industry for any reason(money,easeof work,workplace etc..) knidly get into MCA in any decent college...That would solve all your issues... \n\nOther way lets say u do CCNA u would need 2-3 years in the IT industry to launch urself in a good IT firm. Hence go for MCA or MBA whole heartedly (MBA people also have lot of choices)\n\nBut remember do anything but you need to keep urself ahead of a sizeable group ...a bit ahead from the average folks...that would make the difference...
