    Yes it is.

    But tech support is a huge area so elaborate.

    Yes, but you must have at least 6 months of it, otherwise many employers don't see it as experience.

    Really depends on your degree also. If you just finished your degree and went straight to a tech support job that cool if you could not get another job. You must aim higher at first though. Only if all else fails take the customer support role. I started in tech support and now work in a NOC so its a very valid starting point.

    lol NOC. Our NOC jsut has a lsit of ppl to contact in case a server goes down. IF a server does go down, they call the person in charge of that server, and that person fixes it! you doin NOC in that same old place? ;)
