For this help desk role, I swear restarting the computer solves at least 50% of the tickets that come in .

One of my room mates just got a job as Java Script host developer making $100K and he got his Comp Science degree from UCSD about 2 years ago. Dude needs a work visa since he isn't a US Citizen and I know and told him that he would command and get $120K or higher if he had a green card.

I've had this convo on a few interviews and it's always exactly what you said. You'll get the ones who swear they've rebooted then you check for yourself and see they haven't. Force them to reboot and wala everything is working as it should.

System admin, so a mix between the "Service and Infrastructure" and the "Network Technology" path, hoping to get into the "Information Security" role in the future.

10+ Years Into My IT Career And I Have No Clue What I Want To Do Next.
I swear I change my mind a couple times a year. I started with Networking, thought about Security, considering System Admin, but feel like I may move in to Project Management instead one day. Alot of these positions are being handled by MSPs now. Amazed by what some of these companies are paying for 3rd level support which is what I'm currently doing.

IT business and strategy track...i think?
my last few positions have been in OCIOs of federal agencies and several years of supporting IT governance (stuff like FITARA/CPIC/Technology Business Mgmt - topics that are mentioned in IT strategic plans)
in case anyone is crazy enough to read stuff like this

I’m going down the typical help desk to sys admin path right now but I’m still discovering where I want to end up ultimately .

Has anyone every had a SOC analyst position? Trying to get some real life feedback on that... I'm interested in that role? Did you like the money and the day to day?
I have networking certification exp, and security plus under my belt.. Not trying to do any network admin work, not for me.. I respect it though.

You'd probably be better off getting your CISSP cert than a masters degree, also how much experience do you have in the field?

That's 80k by default already in any big tech area.
