Dear Tejas,

Networking field is definitely interesting and at the same time you need to have a fair idea of the careers prospects in this domain. Several types of positions exist in networking, each with different average salaries and long-term potential, and one should possess a clear understanding of these. Unfortunately, job titles in networking, and in Information Technology (IT) generally, often lead to confusion among beginners and experienced folks alike. Bland, vague or overly bombastic titles often fail to describe the actual work assignments of a person in this field.

The basic job titles one sees for computer networking and networking-related positions include

Network Administrator
Network (Systems) Engineer
Network (Service) Technician
Network Programmer/Analyst
Network/Information Systems Manager

All the best
