I'm looking into taking the A+ exam in the near future but I am trying to find the best way to prepare. I was looking into taking a prep course from Learning Tree but it is a little expensive.. I also found this book CompTIA A+ Certification All-in-One Exam Guide by Michael Meyers that has really good reviews but I honestly am not that great at self study (never developed the best study habits in school).
IT professionals, what steps would you recommend someone seeking an entry-level position in the field?
I got my BA in Econ and I have a few jobs on the resume but I do not have any type of formal technical background. Outside of maintenance on my own computers and phones I dont have any other experience. After meandering through life this past year I'm really trying to focus on establishing a career in a field I've always loved but never thought of pursuing until recently. I think I ultimately want to get into software development but in the short term I'm trying to land a helpdesk technician gig and see what doors open from there.
Any input is greatly appreciated and if you dont mind please share what you do
