Finally Finished!

Start on your certifications. The more you have the more valuable you are in different areas. When my wife hires people for her staff she looks at how versatile a new hire could be. In general in the IT field, there is more stock put into certs rather than a degree. While your degree says that you stuck with it that long and you are serious about it, you still need to get that work experience under your belt in as many areas as possible.

With your extra time, you can do contract work to get experience and have things to add to your resume.
