    I have a Cisco CCNA and have been in the networking field for 10 years. I sttaerd out in education. College specifically. They always have huge networks. I haven’t left and have been very successful. Also hospitals are good networking jobs. Try and avoid small consulting companies that offer website building services and operate as an ISP. I tried that as a side job years ago and they rarely compensate you very well.
