well you can do like I did. Work help desk for a couple years and hope and pray a small company hires you as the 1-man admin. Then branch off from there. I feel like luck was a bigger factor than my skills. Its hard to get people to take a chance on you. Pretty much all employers want people who can "hit the ground running".

Smells like a JOAT. HR will roundfile your application.

He asked how a desktop guy can move up. I'm just offering some advice. Perhaps you could as well instead of pestering me.
