By employed I mean get a job in the industry either offline or online. Ideally something that would highly likely remain in-demand in the near future.

Entry level networking technician. You can get a bunch of useful Cisco certifications for free on their website. Try to get yourself an old switch from ebay to practice setting up a small network, vlans etc., and you’ve got a solid start.
I see this as also a very future proof career. Even if businesses move the vast majority of their infrastructure to the cloud they’ll still have an on premises network presence.

Appreciate the response! Any specific video/reading course to start with?
I didn’t use any video resources back when I got into it, so really couldn’t tell, sorry. But I’m sure there will be some networking 101 courses on youtube.
This is what (older) millenials had to do when they wanted to play video games with their friends, no broadband internet, we moved the computer, set up a lan. Good old time. But this is how 20-25 years latter, I have basic knowledge of network, and look at puzzled Gen Z kids when I tell them to set their IP adress and ping the hardware
Sure as hell wouldn’t know what port forwarding is if it wasn’t for playing lan games online
