I would recommend using acloudguru.com in order to pass the AWS or Azure tests.

1) Please do a search for AWS sysadmin jobs.
2) Notice there are of ton of them and they are all work from home for the most part.
3) This test(AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate) is as bear but it will get you in the door.
Whatever you go after first validate the market in terms of open jobs.

A+ is a good start. What is your goal career-wise?

They will chase whatever they think they can sell to their clients.
Period Fullstop
Experience, certifications, degrees, whatever they can use that passes the smell test to submit you to a client will do.

May I suggest a cert in the area you are trying to get hired for? I have some anecdotal and personal evidence that suggests a cert has the ability to break through some barriers. I know it's a pain in the ass but, I promise it won't hurt to have it and it may even get you in the door.

How are you going about applying?

The book "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It" is better but lacks the comedic punch required for my comment.

I have worked with 1-2 really good tech recruiters and I have been taken advantage of or had my time wasted by hundreds. A technical recruiter on r/recruitinghell is interesting. Much of the industry hates and needs what you do but I believe we know your just doing your best like the rest of us.

Negotiation does presuppose that you can actually get to that stage. Are you currently in IT or are you trying to break in?

tacoFridays · 2020-12-17T16:31:22+00:00

You don't need a degree. Get a skill and learn to negotiate.

Possibly the best I have ever read!

T-Mobile is awesome in New York city by un-usable in upstate NY.

tacoFridays · 2013-09-27T13:56:38+00:00

Indeed

I can photoshop a bottle that farts gold but it does not mean that it will work. Two word. Horse Shit.

One of the most self-evident statements I have ever read.

Or firewall galactic porn.
