Try MONSTER.COM to see if there are any jobs that look appealing.  Since you don't want to stay at entry level, look for companies that have *both* entry and advanced level jobs.\n\nOnce there, learn everything you can.  In fact, if your finances will allow it, tell them you'll work free for 2 weeks.  That will make you standout from the other applicants.\n\nMike Honeycutt

You need a degree. the word diploma brings a notion of low education. even though its for a PC repair tech, it stills comes across as uneducated. Forget the online crap and either go to a real school or pray you get hired somewhere.

I'm not sure if you meant you want to study from home...\nBut you should enroll in an A+ course online.. if you really want to know alot. A+ Is just repairs physically and Physicall hardware install. \nThere's C++ and Networking, which are the internal workings, and networking with multiple computers.\nThere's a good place online \nSmartcertify. they are pretty good if you're not actually out to get every certification.\nSearch Yahoo for the following CompTIA A+ \nand you'll get a swew of things you can use to get started.

In Tampa, you have all the call centers, verizon, aol, bellsouth, Zytel, and alot of the others.  They start between 10-14 an hour.  The retail stores hire techs around 9.  You also have Road Runner, they start around 11 I think, cable pullers around 8, and of course if you have a truck you can install cable for a commision.\n\nTo get higher, if you have the education, you'd go for the private companies looking for IT work, you might start as high as 15 an hour if you keep looking.

Actually you must have at least a master's degree and be working in the industry you are going to teach.  Or at least be able to reasonably associate it to your industry.

usually a highschool degree or GED is required.  The cable or satellite company will give you a 2-week crash course in installing cable.

You can't spell worth shit, can you?\n\nFirst of all, come to the United States.\nThen, get some sort of job to live.\nLast, use your free time to develop contacts.  Try to kiss as much ass as possible.  \n\nI forgot to say, pick a city.    Whatever city you decide to come to, ask every business around if they need a electronics engineer.  Maybe you can look on careerbuilder.com for jobs open for this field and move there and try to get on as a volunteer or something, just to get inside the building.   Then if they like you, they may promote you.   Remember it is all about kissing ass.   If you don't kiss ass, you will not be promoted.

The best way can vary from place to place, but I can tell you how I did it after 20 years as an aircraft mechanic in the Navy, I went to work as a computer machine operator.  Loading tapes, putting paper in the printers, and learned console operations on the mainframe.  While doing that, I studied Unix, and when the company had an opening for a Unix tech, i applied for it.  they sent me to school on each of the systems we worked with.  \nIn other words, get any job you can in a company that uses Unix, and then watch for an opening and go for it.
