Well,

Sometimes i think Information Technology is misused in a lot of occassions. First of all, not all computing graduate are IT graduate (Well, I am). You can have software engineers, data, hardware architecture graduate, computer science graduate, business computing graduate, information system graduate, information management graudate, technology management graduate and even games and multimedia graduate or networking graduate.

If you don't have a major in your IT study, you have to be good in 3 things, 1) basic computing (those that almost every single computer literate will know) such as basic troubleshooting and housekeeping skills. 2) technical skills, in IT, that means intermediate programming, information system studies and database studies. 3) ENGLISH. If you can't even communicate with English, how people are gonna trust you with the life and soul they put in their system?

Oh maybe there is 4) The passion. If you study IT just because you think it's easy to graduate and it's a job-guaranteed course, you are outta here.

If you do have a major, ( maybe in software, hardware, database, management, Information System or even maths), you will have to really flourish in your major. There's nothing wrong at first that the job you get is not really what you learn, but after some time, when you got experience, you are good to go.
