Steem Ghana contest | Network engineering, my dream job | Tuesday August 19, 2021 | contest posted by @calipo09

I want to be a doctor, i want to be a lawyer, i want to be a pilot, i want to be a nurse e.t.c. these were the answers you get when you ask children about their dream jobs. But fast forward growing up these answers barely become a reality because so many factors come into context. some of these factors can be; change in ideologies, financial constrains and several others.
Before i delve into my dream job which is a networking engineer, i will like to tell you a little bit a bit about myself. I was born into a family of teachers who were very strict and cautious about the younger ones(my siblings and i) and due to that i became so inquisitive and wanting to know how things work. Sincerely i wanted to be a pilot since childhood but due to the atmosphere i found myself in i was drawn to "screens"(televisions, computers and phones) which helped in developing in interest for computers and now my course of study in school.

About my dream job
As i said earlier, my dream job is to become a networking engineer. I know you may be wondering who a network engineer is and what he does and maybe the qualifications to become one but there is nothing to worry about. I will be giving some answers below so be my guest if you don't mind @rubilu123.
A network engineer which some people refer to as network architect is someone who plan, construct and manage networks to ensure that they are working as expected.
As a network engineer your main work is to setup, develop and maintain networks within an organization or between organizations.
Some of the qualifications you need to become a network engineer are;
Knowledge of general computer software and and hardware.
Good thinking ability
Ability to adapt to change
Good attentive skills and many more.
To become a network engineer your educational background doesn't really matter you just have fall between the qualities enlisted above. But to become a professional network engineer you have to at least get a diploma in networking or other related courses like computer science, information technology among others.
Network engineering is one of the highest paid jobs in the computer related jobs and i will urge you to take a look at it if you are still wondering about the job to go in for.
Thanks @rubilu123 for this wonderful contest.
