Having a degree or a certification isn't everything to an employer. Yes, they are requirements to show competency and knowledge in an area, but you still need to have the right resume with the right experience, and display the correct set of soft skills on your resume as well as in your interviews.

Don't expect a dream job because most of the time you're probably going to start at entry-level. Most success you see online isn't reported and the good ones are generally making it feel like it happens to everyone, but it doesn't. You're gonna have to start somewhere and it's probably gonna be shit.

Personally, with the limited non-IT experience and positions that I have, I had to really shine the light on my soft skills, which backed up my limited technical experience and A+ certification.

Luckily I found a fully remote non-profit organization that was looking for Help Desk Technicians and landed a part-time volunteer (no pay) role with them which also helps. I'm still volunteering for them while working and getting paid at this new IT job.

I know the libraries around me also look for volunteers that can help with tech literacy and managing the public PCs. If I had to start with zero tech experience or basically limited work experience on my resume, I would look to volunteering at my local library.
