[@jasoncprince]

Maybe I'm just feeling jaded, but I'm noticing a trend. Employers are not hiring entry level when posting for entry level. You can find entry-level job postings in a search, but once you read the job qualification, it's anything but entry level.

[@TheFactsMan]

[@Skaggs666]

@@TheFactsMan looking back on my 14 years of software engineering experience, I firmly believe that software engineering should be a trade with the same infrastructure as union trade shops like HVAC and electricians. College isn’t really useful for us. It moves way too slow and entry level, like you said, doesn’t exist.

The other trend is companies are outsourcing. Just lost a job opportunity because the position I was applying for was moved to India to cut costs...

[@laloruri4102]

Guys just do it, I started the Data Analytics certificate in May 2022 and finished in December at the same time I was applying for internships because I am a Data Analytics major. Just the fact that I could talk about my portfolio and that I could say that I finished my certificate gave me the opportunity to be accepted as an intern in a Data Analytics position in less than a year of having completed the certificate. Note: The certificate DOES NOT prepare you in full to be in that position they are missing more training in SQL and Python and you will need to learn R studio, Tableau and Power BI to have a really strong resume.

[@SqueakGames]

I think something huge to note about the Google IT Certificate is that it also aligns you well to take the CompTIA A+ exam, although the course is aligned with the 10 series test and the newest one is the 11 series there still is not a huge deviation (just focus on some cloud skills and you'll fill in the gaps). So you can leave this course with a Google certificate and a CompTIA certificate.

[@SakuraWulf]

Or, you can study from Professor Messer's videos and get your COMPTIA A+. This is if you are looking to move up in the IT industry since the pay for helpdesk is quite low.

[@dennyklein1965]

It aligns with it but you still can’t use it as sole material to pass the exam. Personally I found this course to be more useful since it got “re-updated” vs it’s initial release in 2020. I found the training in this to be better skill wise and more useful learning wise than just studying for passing an exam to get “certified”. In the end you need both sides of the coin. Skills and Certification (if required) I currently have A+ and Net+ but I still feel lacking skill wise. I’m aiming to finish Sec+ first but I really like the material from the Google IT from a more practical perspective. I will also be aiming to do the Cybersecurity course after. Credentials are one thing but you really need Skills to go with it. Unfortunately, most Employers always want these experienced Techs making it so hard for new inexperienced techs to get that first job.

[@1zuzsuit492]

Which exam should you take first? compTIA or Google?

[@magicwordxyzzy]

@@1zuzsuit492 I did the first A+ exam, then the Google IT cert, then the second A+ exam. A lot of the questions for A+ are brutal and often don't give enough details to appropriately answer or in some cases require having learned from their training material specifically because it flies in the face of the answers in real life. I also got the Google Cybersecurity cert, and I don't plan on coupling it with the Security+; CompTIA is just a shady cash grab, especially with their cert renewal structure now that they made their certs expire to make yet more money off people trying to get jobs.

I got a job with a company called AON as a junior Data Analysts. I hadn’t even finished the certificate at the time. I’m going to college and received an message in my college email. I went ahead and applied. I think it most helped me during the interview process. I mentioned it and they were like wow he’s really trying to learn what we want. It’s definitely more of a conversation starter IMO.

@GhostlyTeehee That's not bad. Were you able to get a job in that field with just the certificates? Or do you need a bachelors too?

[@GhostlyTeehee]

@@bane3991 I work in the NGO space so for me I needed a bachelors. I agree you do need a bit of work experience, or something (volunteering, etc.) to combine it with the certificate. From what I saw, project management is a skill but not a topic (like IT, Health, Finance, etc.). The certificate allows you to get a strong skill for a topic you want to get into, but it doesn't convince employers you're good to go for the topic itself. Despite all this, if you're on the edge, I'd go ahead and do it. The ease, pacing, and price makes it well worth it

I took the Google IT Support cert, I actually got it for free because of an offer they gave and it took awhile to land a job because the world was locked down, but after it opened I started applying and had a great interview, met the co-owner, she commented on the cert(it was listed on my resume) and the conversation around it led to many other great topics and I got the job... they offered the position at the max compensation range available(about 3x more than I was previously making). I absolutely love these certs and have been thinking about taking more just to get them under my belt. I really enjoyed your content and the way you present it.

Did you have any prior experience before taking the Google IT Support certification?

[@krazymantoast]

@@YungYdoc I didn't have any job related/professional experience. I have done lots of self-learning, building my PC, helping others with issues and just figuring stuff out by Google'ing it. The course was really thorough and gave all the tools and info needed to pass. I have had other courses at places that were low quality or wanted you to buy more and gave silly time constraints but the Google IT cert was very well put together, challenging enough to make you think, but gives you the tools to complete it and it feels like you accomplished something by the end. The course gives you way more than enough time only suggesting 10 hours a week but I finished the course in less than a week.

I am nowhere near rich but finally able to start catching up on debts instead of continuing to sink into debt more. I am sure wages abroad are much different depending on where you are located just as within the USA wages can greatly change depending on where you live.

I'm a software engineer, I did the Digital Marketing fundamentals one. It's a 20-25h one.

I wouldn't say "it's a night and day difference". But gave me an edge once or twice.

[@rhuwyn]

One thing you might want to consider regarding your recommendations for Tech Sales is that there are multiple roles within Tech Sales. For higher end tech sales at least you have the "sales guy" and the "tech guy". Most of the sales guys don't actually know the technology well, so they partner with someone who is more technical. Sometimes that person is called a Sales Engineer, or a Solution Engineer, or something like that. Ultimately they don't make as much as the "sales guys" but, they do make a great deal of money. The "sales guy" creates the connections, finds the leads, and develops the relationship, and the "tech guy" actually looks at the customers' needs and scopes out the solution and sometime partners on the execution. An example might be if you work for AWS, you can have an Account Manager that is a basically a sales guy. And then a Solution Architect which actually understands the services and helps the customer adopt those services.

[@kevinconnell6541]

I am actually in the middle of the IT support Cert right now but I was planning on doing more Certs. Glad this video came up in my recommended. I kind of already planned on doing most of the google ones but it is good to know so more information.

Entry level data analysts do not make 90k per year. Can’t believe you are even saying this. Expect around 40k-70k entry level depending on your state. MAYBE some huge companies in California you can get near 90k but probably not as an entry level position.

[@whatisthis1262]

​@ari_c6900 how are you getting on? I'm a devops engineer who started off as a developer. I would say thar IT is generally seen as pretty separate to software development. It's not impossible but an IT role is more likely to prepare you for infrastructure or cloud which is a completely brilliant route. A lot of my devops colleagues came from the infrastructure/operations side. Either way learn some coding! Python will set you up for scripting and automation in various roles across infrastructure, devops, cloud, data analytics/engineering and is often used in software development too. It's versatile and lower learning curve.

[@Glenningway]

I work in IT, just a warning it's super hard to move up past helpdesk/support. Also, many small-mid business want to operate with a small 1-4 man IT dept for hundreds, if not thousands of customers/staff. Expect some level of afterhours support - just avoid orgs that want you glued to your phone 24/7/365. I don't hold any of the google certs, but I do hold Net+ and Sec +. Some jobs don't care for certs, it's moved to experience even for entry level... which is an endless loop. Expect your seniors to hoard information and snap at you for asking questions while expecting you to be on their level. Not everyone is like this, but this field attracts a certain type of individual that are insufferable to work with. Systems Analyst seems to be a newer title thrown around, though not as common as Helpdesk/Support. Even with my going on 5 years of experience it's been very rough finding any remote work. Data Analyst from my POV seems more of a normie friendly path, just I'm not seeing the jobs Shane is. I've spent a few months learning SQL, PowerBi, Excel and found a lot of it pretty boring.

[@bendover-bz4bc]

Bro I just want boring job where i get average salary probably more than support guy. That's it. Boring job is best job you could ever have.

[@0rnery0verwatch]

Yeah this has been my experience, through and through. I've been stuck in helpdesk for so long. I attained my security+, but when a position for cybersecurity opened up in my company, it was somehow given to a guy who didn't have *any* certs, let alone the security+. That really left a sour taste in my mouth and made me regret even studying for the thing. Then I took a 200hr boot camp for coding, but just found I didn't like it at all. And you're dead on about stafffing... I've never worked a help desk position that had the appropriate level of techs. Every where I've worked, it always seems like we need double the amount of people we have. The other problem is, I always tend to be the most conversational/sociable person on any help desk, so I have to work hard to not pigeon hole myself into the position since so many of my coworkers have limited social skills. I just don't know where to go from here... I honestly feel stuck and will probably end up going back to school to learn another trade. IT seems like a big joke these days. I got into it because I wanted to work with my hands, not thinking that the future would be majority software/cloud stuff. And I've been doing it long enough that I get asked to manage, but I don't want to deal with people... I want to deal with machines.

I obtained the Project Manager certificate from Google. I live in Mexico and took the course to secure a role in a project. However, it only lasted for 6 months, and since then, I haven't had the opportunity to apply the skills I learned. The problem is that many companies here prefer professionals with a degree in IT. Additionally, the company I work for lacks the structure and culture to implement this knowledge. My advice is to assess your current role and evaluate the likelihood of growth within your company before pursuing any certificates.

I have over 10 years work experience as a Project Coordinator. Many employers are looking for ppl with Data Analytics education/experience on top of having admin and project coordination skills. The cert can easily supplement work experience in admin or pc.

[@zuluku]

Thank you for the insightful video! This inspired me to start my journey with the Google Data Analytics Certification. 🙂

[@amruthasiva6986]

The problem is that these certifications although valuable still require real time work experience especially in Canada. I searched for many Project Manager roles and most of them require previous work experience even at entry level.

[@aletbamford1004]

I've been told to apply to those kinds of ads anyway. They usually are very hopeful when they write the ads.

[@harsectinal]

You should start as a project coordinator rather than a project manager if you are entry level.

[@maureenoneill983]

Can you write out the names of the certificates listed best to not best somewhere? My auditory software can't pick up the images at 15:39 . Please that would make your well thought out presentation much more accessible to people who use accessibility software. Thank you.

[@Bearded_one1]

There’s a transcript of the video. You can read it and recreate your own list.

[@justastan2869]

You guys I just finished the Google Data Analytics Certificate and I didn’t pay a dime. Take advantage of the financial aid. I got it for all 8 courses. I got full aid but they can give a certain percentage off

[@Shubham-ok3ug]

Great video, just name the courses on the tier list, so we can know what it is, it's kinda hard to recognise with just photos.

[@Waevform]

The pic at the end needs the name of the certs. I don’t wanna skip all around the video to figure out my own summary after watching it

[@LazloArcadia]

Just a warning for those who have no background in project management but your thinking of getting a certification. I have a bachelor's degree in project management, and I am constantly getting spammed by recruiters who want a PM for things that are in no way related to my skillset or resume. The recruiters are simply doing a keyword search and then spamming thousands of us with the words "project management" on our resume, linkedin profiles, etc. Honestly i was getting so many garbage reqs that were in no way related to my skillset that I removed all references to PM from my online profiles.

[@Wannakatana2112]

I think the IT Google automation is great for me as my experience is with VBA automation ( Microsoft) but nobody is hiring for this anymore so I need to transition.

[@veshawnowens9847]

Cybersecurity is pretty hard to land a job. I don’t think the numbers is a stretch, it’s difficult getting a call back even with the cert and I have two.

[@GroovyTrees]

Been thinking about getting into IT for a while. Learning a new skill gonna be fun and I believe worth it.

[@mikeorioles]

Just the video I was looking for - thank you!

[@dlengelkes]

I have taken the Google IT Certification program and it is nice complement with Comptia A+ Certification. Now it won't get you a job but help get an Interview.

[@johngalt5166]

As someone who cares nothing for tech I might throw on the social media marketing and project management ones just to expand my portfolio and skill set.

[@deandrewabbott2924]

Great content so far. I really just need to know which certificate I should take to start immediately. I am very new to IT and would like to do system analyst

[@pickyourbrainswithbenjamin761]

My goals for two of these certificates a two things Enhance my skills to run and operate my buisiness venture then upgrade for a job but

[@DirectActionEdu]

Do you have an updated video of this - how is the G-Certificates holding up in the market? Thanks for what you're doing, by the way.

[@mannydelallata749]

Thank you for this video! Very informative!

[@ShaneHummus]

Glad it was helpful!

[@alvirarahman1559]

"Data is more valuable than oil or gold" Gold? sure. Oil? Hell no.

[@uoneib]

Hey Shane! Great video :) you didn't rate the Google IT Support cert... what tier would you rank it? Thanks!!

[@HaggisMuncher-69-420]

I did the project management one but had already worked in project management in the past. Quickly got a job in telecoms project management. Working on learning python now as I wanna move away from PM

[@HaggisMuncher-69-420]

Also started the Python for Everyone but ended up ditching it very early on for another course on Udemy. Will be working toward my PCEP

[@perkyes]

why do you want to move away from pm?

[@tnix80]

Entry level marketing may pay peanuts, but if you get the skills and connections to start your own agency, you'll blow by what the others are making and have the freedom of no 9-5.

[@SammichAran-cg6rd]

How much is considered peanuts?

[@peyarobbins]

This was such a great ranking. So informative. Thanks so much!

[@ShaneHummus]

Thanks for watching!

[@SirDude555]

Hey Shane, I just stumbled upon your channel and wanted to say I'm enjoying all your videos. I also would like to share my concern for your shoulder joint and muscles for holding that Tea Cup in the same hand video after video. Balance out those arm muscles! ;-)

[@FridaDaniel]

Need your review on the new Advanced Google Data Analytics course, I'm almost done with the Google Data Analytics course.. I am interested in the new course as it covers Python and Statistics.

[@manasseho]

The new course is wonderful, I am currently on it, a bit challenging though, but I love it. I think you should go ahead

[@adamd9166]

Highly recommended. And I agree with the previous comment; the stats, regression and ML segments are challenging but stick with it and you'll get through.

[@pkhris]

Incredible video, mate. I can verify about half of what you said, I've no doubt about the rest. Heading to the things I did not know about. Thanks!

[@ShaneHummus]

Thanks for watching!

[@alandelfresno]

Entry levels jobs in LinkedIn are not entry level, a lot ask for 5+ or 3+ years of experience

[@iwantcheesypuffs]

Will a degree or certificate teach you everything you need to know at Company X. No. But companies will see that you are trying to learn, or have learned, what they have in demand. And that can get you hired. Even when you graduate with a Masters Degree, you still have to learn how Company X does their thing, their vibe, company lingo, and company culture. But having a good cert and a good attitude can definitely get your foot in the door. Interns should *always* get paid. If you are talking to a hiring manager or someone in the interview process and they say that for X amount of time as an intern you don't get paid while you're "learning" -- run, quickly, and find a decent company. Also good to start the interview process with "Is this the kind of company" or "Is this the kind of team" I want to be a part of. You are interviewing them -- not the other way around.

[@user-sangsangd1v]

IT Support Certification, I have already done .Almost finish with Data Analytics and Cybersecurity. But yes still need also learn a lot and practice alot those skills .!! thanks alot mam for ur video ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@ShaneHummus]

Way to go!

[@0nlyfatima]

Definitely have paralysis analysis cause I’m like where do I want to pivot into PMP DA BA Cyber UI UX LMNOPQRS! 😂 Glad I found you but Help!!

[@markoredstar8990]

What do you think about Googles Digital Marketing Certificate? Do you think it’s a good course and you could get a job in Digital Marketing? Love your channel and keep up the good work!

[@everlast2305]

I STARTED IT TODAY BRO,so far looks good,but not sure if thats the best pick or if it will help me for a job as i dont have other digital experiences.

[@tnix80]

If you're relatively young without obligations, don't pay attention to what he said about salaries or open positions, that's rat race thinking. First of all there's an endless sea of demand for (effective) content, 2nd if you get the right skills and connections you can freelance or even start your own agency and not only make more than the 9-5 salary jobs, you'll have more freedom (and fun IMO, I'm tech savvy but I don't enjoy working with tech like I do the creative aspects of copywriting/marketing). It's not hard to get started, write some engaging copy like a good cold outreach email or show some SEO optimizations and business owners will want your help. If you get stuck, gpt can do about anything now with the right prompt.

[@sherrypollock-li9lm]

I was awarded a scholarship to take all of them. I have finished Project Management and I am half way through data analytics.

[@sherrypollock-li9lm]

I recieved my scholarship from a female empowerment group I am in. But Coursera has financial and full scholarships.

[@Breakthebinarybby]

Thank you for this

[@theexplorer1350]

I really love your editing style with the memes

[@karina_biagurova]

Meta certificate from Coursera great for beginner and give the basics, but Meta make changes too often so course need to be updated.but the plus of this course that you can take a meta certified exam and get a badge for your cv.

[@joziahcastillo1936]

There’s also Google Coursera E-Commerce and Digital Marketing certification!

[@techsavage7327]

its super worth knowing that Google IT Support Pro cert qualifies you to enroll in IT paths at WGU

[@evenesence21]

Hey Shane! Came here today, after getting an email for a new Google Cyber Security Certification. Can you make a video on what you think of it?

[@travelingcameraman89]

I rarely comment on videos but this video was completely helpful and eye-opening. Thank you! Longtime subscriber of your channel, love what you do sir.

[@skushneryuk]

In Russia big companies cooperate with big universities, create new programs, courses, departments and even faculties. I believe, it may be a good aproach too, as it is easier to adapt and improve something rather than start something from scratch

[@skushneryuk]

For example, Tinkoff, Yandex, VK and Avito have their own schools in analytics, data science and big data infrastucture Tinkoff creates its own university with 2-year masters-like program in Data Science. Yandex cooperates with different universities. Like Tinkoff, ABBYY, Sber, etc, Yandex has its own department in MIPT. Last two years in bachelor in MIPT student can spend in Data Analysis department of Yandex, take different courses in Statistics, NLP, CV, RL, Go, Bayesian Statistics, etc, and write bachelor thesis with specialist in Yandex In HSE Yandex funded Faculty of Computer Science, and lots of winners of school student olympiads in math and programming go there

[@unvunb7157]

I am taking both data IBM analytics and p4e and as a beginner I wouldn't be able to understand python from IBM, so for someone who wants to learn python for any reason p4e is great.

[@Tanont_H]

This is such good information. Thank you for this!

[@ShaneHummus]

Glad you think so. You're welcome

[@miata350]

I did the Google IT Support cert and learned that I really don't want to do IT Support.

[@KyrShane]

Thank you for the help, great video

[@RedRyz3n]

The salary information here is not what you'd see in the real world. These are averages after x amount of years in the field. People should understand that they will most likely not make anywhere close to any of this as a novice.

[@josemenchu6764]

Exelente, propuesta, gracias.

[@joshuajoseph9340]

Just as a note, there's a beginner and advanced data analytics course for google.

[@Th3Chuzzl3r]

Any suggestions for me guys? I worked as a leadman in a melt dept for a foundry until I got cancer. After getting cancer I also had to get my knees replaced from aquiring necrosis from the treatments. I went back to work and have been working for over 3 yrs as an IT guy for a school district. I got into IT because I am slightly limitied physically from my knees. I have experience with switch management,running and making ethernet cables, installing cameras and using their software, troubleshooting anything can think of including laptops, desktops, cameras, kisosks, scanners, printers, etc. I am 29 years old and I want to stop living like a peasent and raise a family, but I am having difficulty selecting which career path will benefit me most. Thank you.

[@yuwehbritannia530]

I think best way to move forward is to learn Programming like Python, its great since you already have experience working in IT field. Aside from being Software developer, Python can also be used for Cyber Security roles -specifically to automate. These jobs also gives you the option to work from home. Hope this helps and Good luck!

[@Th3Chuzzl3r]

@@yuwehbritannia530 I have no certificates, do you think I should aquire at least a CompTia A+ before moving on to Python? Thank you for your response btw, I appreciate it.
