I was wondering if anybody wants to share/join each other's LinkedIn networks. Good way to network outside this forum.

There was actually a thread about this not long ago:

http://www.techexams.net/forums/off-topic/44323-linkedin-profile-link-resume.html

I am actively trying to connect with IT Security Professionals in the town I just moved to. If anyone lives in Greenville, SC area or the Upcountry region please send a PM my way.

Seems like its healthy mix though.

K that thread was three years ago

Might be a good sticky maybe?

edit: nvm im a moron did not read the right link.....

Here is mine, my connections tend to be tech recruiters, former and current coworkers. Majority of them work for national/international companies so it might help others if we join each others.

I think its funny that most people find putting a cert after your name is very taboo, but it seems like all the CISSP guys do it. lol.

I think that's ridiculous for the most part, but I'd add CISSP, CCIE, and possibly SANS certs.

veritas_libertas

I think for most certs it's kinda ridiculous, but for CCIE and CISSP I can understand the urge to do that. I think I would probably would put those behind my name. Are you guys opposed to it?

ColbyG

I had CCNP after mine for awhile, but I couldn't get into the way it looked.

I did that when I was looking for work, once I got my CISSP I got way more calls for interviews. Then when I did it on LinkedIn all my buddies copied me.....

I did add it in my email sig at work since I had a security IT position.

tpatt100

I read that frame it/email sig post. I framed my MCSE back in the day but when I moved I just never got around to it. My CISSP cert is actually a pretty damn nice looking cert actually looks/feels like something professionally done.

Where are they all now?

In a binder protected in my bookcase.

ColbyG

I don't know where any of my papers are.

Hyper-Me

I toss mine on the top shelf in my closet still in there hard case.

Of course i dont get them anymore because MS quit sending them.
