IT JOBS Requirements



How specialised can you be for today's Market.

IT is a vast field with so many sub leaves (as i would call them)

Taking for example a doctor..you have general practitioners, specialist in different fields same applies to the IT sector, you can be a software specialist, network specialist, systems engineer, and etc...

but hey!!! software specialist, you have different software programming languages, you can specialise yourself in a few languages not all like java, c++, php, c, visual basic, c#, ASP.Net, perl and the list goes on. So it all depends on the company for which you will work.

Same with networking, you can be a network admin meaning you have to know both system and networking.. system || microsoft /linux platforms|| Microsoft servers

Networking which will mean frame relay, leased lines, a bit of router configurations, switches, VLANs, layer 3 switches.... (Normally telecom configures all your frame relay routers and is under their management, same applies to leased lines)..


But Remember if you specialise yourself in something it is harder to find the job but you get better paid if you will be able to master it. But then you have to keep yourself up to date. Like software programmers you cannot stick to one language as the programming languages evolve.
