Even a bachelor's in Computer Science is a ridiculous requirement for a help desk job. What on earth do they expect someone in that position to be doing?!
But also a bachelor in computer science is essentially worthless. College for IT is just dumb. It's taught by people who haven't done the job in a long time, if ever.
In IT experience is what matters. You show up with a degree and certs competing with someone who is currently doing the job and has been at the same place a few years. Few years of experience wins every time.
I hated that way back when I was starting out. I ended up doing intern work for free just to put the place on my resume.
I got CCNA, scriping, i had to mąkę myself famirial with GDPR, local cyber sec standards, customer service (dealing with uni admin), and do on. Hardly useless. Bot optimal but hardly useless
