Multiple domains in 1 job

apr911

Hello all,

Im working on putting together my resume for my CISSP endorser and I had a question about domains.

I have worked several positions where I was the only IT person so I did it all, network security, operation security, BCP/DRP, physical security and infromation security.

I feel like listing all of these would throw up read flags that might get me audited and also I dont even know if it would be allowed... The way the endorsement reads, it sounds kinda like it should be 1 job 1 domain?

Thoughts?

Its definitely not 1 job 1 domain..

It is very much possible that you could have worked on multiple domains in one job.

Simply being a network / security admin , you could have worked on Telecommunication, encryption, Network Access control, etc.

I would suggest just pen down whatever is your actual experience in your resume.. 1 job or multiple..Even if you do get audited and you have enough proof. it wont matter.

Hope it helps.

My history sounds similar and I had no problems. What I did was list the company + position + the domains covered and then the role itself. It was fairly comprehensive but I figured it wouldnt hurt to have as much info as possiable in there.

I didnt have anyone to endorse me so went via the ISC2 route without any problems

Have you already passed the CISSP exam? If so, what did you list on the candidate application form as the CISSP domains covered by your work experience? Those are the ones that you will use for your endorsement form as well.

Nope, you can work all 10 domains at the same job, but you'd need a resume with 20+ years of work experience, and a long-time college as your endorser, to prove it.

Cool guys, thanks for the feedback.

I sent my resume over to my endorser and he came back and said he doesnt see any problems or reason not to sign off pending confirmation with my point-of-contact for each position.


Cheers,
