How to being my career in MIS or BIS?
I graduated with AAS degree in Business Info. Sys. and just started to look for an entry level position. However, I didn't land an internship while in college because I transferred to another school and the internships didn't match my criteria that I eventually stopped looking then work part-time. I was taught Microsoft Excel, Access and Quickbooks during my last semester. Many of my previous occupation is in the retail and might be difficult to enter into an IT industry.
Despite the lack of experience working in my field, I do develop hobbies: learning to use Linux, operating Windows, and understanding network systems including security tools. I'm particularly fond with Linux since I've been tailoring on different aspects of the machine.
Consequently, I cannot begin to look for volunteer or internship position related to my major due to my independent status - unless I have to. Essentially, I'm asking if there's any advice or possible positions that I could start right away with little experience if possible.
I appreciate your support.

Many people look for interns based on their major and current skill set. Learning Linux is a very good thing. Learning Windows not so much as Windows admins are a dime a dozen. Good Linux people are harder to find.
If you are not in school, you probably won't get an internship. And a two year degree in BIS might qualify you to flip burgers at Burger King. You really need more of an education if you want to get into the IT field. Sorry friend, but your degree is pretty worthless. You need a four year degree if you want to get your foot in the door.
