what is the best thing to do after finishing an IT course?In my case I really feel that I still lack experience to find a good job that is related on this field.Most of the companies in our country requires experience of one or more years.Until now I still don't have any job.Do you think I should take a short course or training before hunting a job or do I proceed straight to searching a job?

hi, that course is really nice because you can apply to the technical company as a technical help-desk support,or even data analyst,those company that are related to programming will hire you for sure because they need an employee that have background in IT course.

I'm not an IT graduate, but i think there's a several different area in IT that you can explore... for instance if you want to be a programmer then you should try freelance job like the advise above, but if you more interested in networking you could apply to become a network administrator at small company first then move your way to the bigger company...

I'd suggest that you'd go freelance...here are some sites: http://www.scriptlance.com/?ref=nduhaylungsod https://www.odesk.com/referrals/track/nduhaylungsod ScriptLance is mainly for programmers but I don't really know much about the site. Odesk is a good place for freelancing since a lot of companies outsource at Odesk but you need to build a good portfolio to keep up with the competition.
