Passed 220-802 Today Finally Certified!!!
After months of study and hard work I passed the 801 last week and the 802 today and now I'm finally certified. Feels Great. My only question is what should be my next move? I have no experience so what is my best chance of acquiring some? And what should be the next cert I go for? Was thinking of going for the Network+ but I've heard a lot of people say it's useless and I should go straight for the CCNA. What do you guys think?

I wouldn't say the network+ is useless. It is a great foundation step before going into the Cisco CCNA. I would say get the network+ down and then go into CCENT/CCNA because if you have no prior network experience or knowledge, it'll be a bit tougher to study for and understand the material.
Goodluck. -

Out of them all I would recommend the Exam Cram books the most. Exam Cram seems to be more focused and concise and more straightforward about exactly what you need to know for the tests. -

Congrats on the pass, I also think you should first start with net+ just to build a good foundation for the CCNA. Good luck on whatever you decide take on next!!! "It's better to try and fail than to fail to try." Unkown
