Learning to be a professional in a working environment, updating my resume, taking part in mock interviews – these all helped me to come out of training more comfortable in an interview than I ever was before. Once I got into my first network administration position, it was everything I was looking for in an IT job, and it was all things I learned, hands-on, at Per Scholas.
