not too sure about developer work, but if you up to support, DBA and SECURITY(OS & Network) are the way to go. For first job CISCO networking is good.
I don't think it is too early to 'plan' which field to go to. Most master course (apart from research) is crap in australia (some worse than bachelor or TAFE course)!
Pay attention to the trend of outsourcing , btw. You don't want to focus on the field that will be mostly outsource in near future.
我很赞同啊!
SAP和DBA是很难获得工作经验的。所以我一开始就把这两个排除了。有两条pathways,编程+数据库 or networking(switch,router,cisco....,不是cabling和design的工作)。这两条路虽然有一点点交叉,不过基本算是IT两个方向了。现在还是比较偏向于走编程+数据库的。networking类似于DBA,比较重要的工作,没工作经验人家不愿意让你上手啊。想了想学校的课程设置,学校给的是java+oracle的课程,那么我想就从java和oracle作为切入点吧。
