They quit maintaining up with the most current technologies, they cease studying, they no longer preserve their CCNA, MCSE, and other sector certifications up-to-date.... and then 1 day, their comfy job is gone.

Possibly they get laid off, maybe the organization moves and they never want to move with it... but for one cause or an additional, they are in the worst position feasible. They have no job, and they have allowed their IT skills to deteriorate to the point where they are no longer employable.

If you're in IT, you should be continuously studying. You should continually take the long view, and ask yourself three critical questions. First, exactly where do you want to be in three years? Second, what are you carrying out now in order to attain this goal? And finally, if you have been laid off these days, are your current abilities sharp enough to speedily get an additional job?
