If you can accumulate enough of a broad range of knowledge, you can make 
your way in IT, at least in a tech-heavy area like I'm in. I started off 
knowing computer programming, but having some experience in accounting and 
picked up IT in the proess. That led to a job that was IT and Telecom, and 
having telecom on my resume helped throughout the late '90s and 2000s for 
small tech companies that needed someone to do all of the IT work that the 
product tech people didn't want to have to deal with.

Admittedly, I'm in one of the most tech-friendly places in the world, and 
that world has changed somewhat since I started out.
