In this video, I explain how IT students can gain real-world experience during university holidays and through work placement, even if they start with zero experience.
After 10+ years working in IT as a system and network administrator, I’ve seen exactly why some graduates walk straight into jobs — and why others struggle.
The difference is not grades. It’s experience before graduation.
In this video, you’ll learn:
How to use uni holidays to gain hands-on IT experience
Where to find short-term IT roles, volunteering, and internships
How to approach small businesses and MSPs the right way
When unpaid experience makes sense — and when it doesn’t
How to use work placement as a job audition, not just a requirement
How to put this experience on your resume the right way
This advice is practical, ethical, and based on real IT workplaces, not theory.
If you’re studying IT, computer science, networking, or cybersecurity — this video can save you years of frustration.
