It all depends on your skill set (languages, databases, frameworks, years of experience, degree, etc)

Do you have any specific skills or just "IT"

Experience is key. Too many people get certs by learning brain dumps. They don't hurt, but they don't have that much influence.

yeah... It Degrees are great ways to figure out if the field "is for you" and determine what specialty you enjoy. You will learn a little about a lot, but not a lot about anything specific.
Kinda gives you the foundation to be able to get certifications.
I learned I enjoyed sql, network engineering, sys admin, and info sec. I also determined I hated programming/Web dev

As someone who places people in IT jobs and reviews resumes for a living... you guys don't know what you're talking about.
Certifications are only important/required in a FEW positions.
As for experience, you're either "junior" from 0-4 years, 5+ years CAN be a "senior" depending on the company with the reqs.
You either choose one direction and stick with it and try your luck at finding companies that are looking for what you have (duh) or you get a little bit of everything and go for 'full stack' experience.
OP, I'm not kidding... email me and I may be able to help you with your search. I can think of several IT firms in BR/St. Francisville/Laffy/NOLA/Hammond/North Shore

This...for a new grad, an IT degree with some internship or part time IT work is worlds better than just an IT degree with a couple certs.

Winner winner chicken dinner.
Experience is king from what I've seen. It appears to me that some companies that don't have a lot of work but have a crap ton of money throw certs and people as a form of compensation.
Although I will say that if you can hop on a good ITIL cert that is worth having. A+ and even some MS certs at this point are handed out like food stamps.

My company has a pretty decent sized "IT" operation but like many have asked, what is your specialization? I'm in information security but we also have a storage team, network, server, desktop, developers, application, etc. Would need to know more to help.

Not loving HTML right now. I've only been doing it in Notepad though. Dreamweaver is a beautiful thing.
