2) no. 3) Get almost any job remotely related to computers and grow from there. My first job after university was as a temp doing data entry. It paid minimum wage (US). But I met a guy there that gave me a rec. for my next job doing programming. At my next job if I'd wanted I could have gone into networking. In 1 year it's possible to go from taking almost "any" job to the job you want. Does it suck that you can't immediately get a job in your field? Yes!! I went on many interviews and got turned by every one due to lack of experience. It wasn't until I decided to take any job remotely computer oriented that I had success.
