No, not really. I was unemployed for like 2-3 month after canceling my study at a university of applied science. Did an internship as an electrician. I learned the basics, but that wasn't something I was looking for and did a vocational training in the field of IT. Starting with a low payment, I did more training during the job paid by the company to find the right place in that field. Right now I am a system specialist / technical consultant for Avaya Aura PBX and additional server applications. I've climbed the career ladder pretty fast in the recent years and still going up. My luck was that I didn't had to ask anyone if they want me, they all came on their own and ask me to join them.
The current market is that most people go to universities. They are flooding the market and have trouble to find a job. I went the other way, where people with my experience are rare, but desperately needed.
