Re: Polite Answers To Eight Shockingly Rude Salary Questions Recruiters Ask
I don't like giving out my salary info as is not relevant to the hiring role because many factors influence salary such as industry, location, etc. I foolishly disclosed it one time and the recruiter did the math of the hourly rate and said ok I can get you $2 more. Which really aggravated me I said would you leave your… -
Re: 7 out of 10 IT job openings go unfilled
I don't really think the H1Bs are a threat at the moment, Tech. I feel like being scared on H1Bs taking your job or preventing you from getting a job is just overrated. There's a cap on how many can come over in a year in all the professional fields and if someone wants to hand their entire infrastructure or IT over to… -
Re: Passed HCISPP exam yesterday, my first ISC2 experience – strongly recommend the cert…
Congrats! I took a similar road. I have the HCISPP, CISSP, CISM, CAP, and SSCP designations. I took the CISSP under the 2012 objectives in April 2015. I failed with a 699. I flipped one question upon review. I was not passing the weekend without taking something. I flipped through the SSCP study guide (Darril Gibson),… -
Re: Personal Cloud/Storage Solution Opinions - WD MyCloud/OwnCloud/QNAP/Etc
I just picked up a QNAP 451 with 4 Seagate Ironwolf NAS drives. (you can get WD reds too, but more expensive and same benchmarks) MAKE SURE you get NAS drives only!!! Their firmware prevents the entire RAID from going down if a downed drive stays down longer than 7 seconds I think. Also, they are suited for 24/7 use and… -

Re: CompTIA "Advanced" Security Certification ?
Heard you out. IMO: you are completely wrong. Since 8570, security certs are far more relevant than ever. Now they are an actual job requirement, not just a feather in your cap. Okay, let's apply the same logic to every other type of credential. Does a driver's prove the driver knows what he/she is doing? Clearly not,… -
Re: interested in HCISPP, but no documentation
For fear of running out of ***** (llort) biscuits on the topic. Of which I will pick some up at the store this evening for your enjoyment. Here goes. A couple of people who have assisted in the development of the exam have been grandfathered into the certification. I know of no one outside of the UK without looking it up… -
Re: Which certs would you get if they were free and you had time...
You mentioned the 5K cap. Seriously, if I had additional free time, I would work at ISACA, minimally, the CISM. I'd probably attempt a December testing. Heck, for 5K, I could purchase an in-seat bootcamp, but that's months (if not years) down the road at this point. If money was no object, I really wouldn't need any… -
Re: Think back to when you started your career: Are you where you thought you'd be?
I am just at 12 years... and trying to remember back... I don't think I really had any expectations of where I wanted to be. If I did, I would have busted my hump during the first year of my career going to school when I had unlimited tuition reimbursement until waiting for the last recession to kick me in the rear. I… -
Re: AT&T DSL vs. U-Verse
It's no lie. One incident of it not working as expected does not make it a lie. Even if this had been a widespread experience for you, I would equate it to your area, because my experience has been very different. I've implemented Comcast 50mbps and 100mbps circuits for at least 15 different SMB sites. I've never had an…
