IT jobs aren't just for people who grew up tinkering with computers. While the popular conception of IT workers is that these individuals are the "nerds" of the business world, the truth is that there are just as many social, gregarious, well-adjusted people in IT as there are in any other field. Those that are interested in moving into IT from their current jobs already may have skills at dealing with other co-workers that can be hugely useful in the modern era. What this means is that those who already have abilities in other fields - or contacts in other parts of business can be invaluable to modern IT.
