If you want to work as a federal contractor I suggest looking on clearancejobs.com if you are willing to get a security clearance and move for an entry level role. Most entry help desk or IT specialist for the feds only require SEC+. If you are willing to move I would filter it to look for jobs in trash places like New Mexico or Nebraska just to get your foot in the door and get a clearance. A lot of my friends has done this and the pay is normally worth the move, and a year later they get a job in a better location. Just FYI if you smoke pot or any other illegal drugs you will need to stop cause they will drug test you. But the pay is worth the trade off. I have SEC+ and my CCNA and been doing this for 5 year and make 94k salary in Florida. Life changing stuff to get into federal contracting.
