After a few weeks of studying I managed to sit and pass this exam, and I feel like relieved. This exam is no walk in the park as some make it out to be in previous years. My first sim had 11 subsets (I definitely got that wrong) but managed an overall score of 853.

I would love for some advice. I already possess an MCSA server 2012 certification and I would be looking for jobs in Toronto. I've been out of work for well over months since I was awaiting a work permit. I have experience working in I.T for a large company in the UK and I worked as an Auditor for a bank before that. What kind of jobs should I be looking at in relation to an entry level security position ?

Thanks in advance

    grats! I felt great after passing Sec+ to complete the "Golden 3" (A+, N+, S+). I've heard in the US the DoD (Department of Defense) hires sec+ entry level. I am not sure about the UK. sorry.
