Passed CCENT today

After two months of procrastinating, I finally took the test. Really felt unsure going into it, but once I started the exam I felt pretty good about it.

Now I just need to decide if I want to go for CCNA Security or CEH. Don't think I'll bother with CCNA R&S as it doesn't interest me at all.

    Friend of mine that's a CEH surprisingly recommended I go for CCNA Security first. So I'll probably take his advice, especially since Cisco is still fresh in my mind.

    What were your study materials for CCENT? I went through CBT Nuggets, but when I get back to studying for this, I think I'm going to try INE or the GNS3 Academy materials.

    CBTNuggets videos with Jeremy, Wendell Odom Book, and Boson Practice Exams. The Boson Exams I think helped more than anything.

    Choose wisely.

    the current CCNA-Sec expires in less than 3 months...

    Hi guys,
    I'm glad to find this tech forum, so many expert here and willing to share their expertise.
    That's why I need your advise ?

    my background is BS in civil engineer from overseas, and moving here in 2013.
    Work any part time job till I decided to take training courses A+, Net+ and CCNA at University (March - Jul 2015),
    and I've passed my CCENT(920 score) on August 25, 2015.

    I tried to apply a job at job recuiter but they told me that I need some experience.

    Can I get a job with CCENT (no experience)?
    What kind of job ?
    What is the best path for my next cert?

    thx

    When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep, So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler And your need like an armed man.

    Thanks for bringing this up. It seems the study materials for the new exam aren't available yet, so that makes it an awkward situation. Perhaps I'll do CCNA Wireless instead until the new CCNA Security has been out for a while. Wireless interests me as well.

    This is exactly the situation I've found myself in (except for the part about passing CCENT...but soon!). I'm leaning more towards Wireless now too.

    I just ordered the Cisco press CCNA Wireless book. I'll see how that goes and then reevaluate next year for CCNA Security.
