Been a long time lurker on this site and would like to offer some insight into being endorsed by (ISC)2.
I passed my CISSP exam in mid March and submitted my endorsement via (ISC2) as I didn't know a CISSP.
The endorsement process completed today after 7 weeks.
If you are seeking to be endorsed through this process make sure you have all the evidence of your experience to hand and make it as clear as possible and verify all the contact details.
I had to clarify some of the evidence a couple of weeks ago which probably delayed the process. I don't think it helped that I am over in England either.
I had plenty of experience however it was a muddle to sort through one of my roles which was a rolling contract which was renewed periodically for the same assignment.
So the key piece of advice I can give is to provide evidence that is clear and unambiguous.
Needless to say I am happy that the process is complete.
Want to thank the contributors to this site as it has provided me with much insight and greatly helped in my efforts to achieve CISSP. Good luck in all your efforts!
