Re: Trying to start a career in IT...
I suggest that you avoid going from retail to PC repair/support because they roughly parallel each other on the "you don't want to make a career out of this" totem pole. You may enjoy working on and building computers, but after you do it long enough you realize that there's nothing new, and you're just doing the same… -
Re: Should ISC2 get rid of endorsements??
I have many certs, including the CISSP, SSCP, ISSMP, and ISSAP from ISC2. I have had them for a while, (more than 10 years) and I don't recall requiring an endorsement. Now, I just earned the CCFP, and entered the endorsement process. I have never been audited on my certs, although I know collegues that have been audited -… -
Yet another Job related question....
Hi Guys, I'm probably going to be moving on before December since I doubt my boss will give me a raise and since were outsourcing IT to a well-known company that is partnered with Dell I see my roles diminishing quite rapidly. I will really hate being a non-hands on desk monkey real quick; I'm extremely hands-on. Plus… -
Re: MIS Degree Looking for advice in IT
Hello, please allow me to explain my situation in detail. Initially, like back in HS, my inspiration is to be a video game designer. Thus when I was in college, I went to major in CS. I did that for about 3 years or so basically doing programming, coding, testing, debugging, blah blah. It was very boring. I spent so much… -
Re: Switching to cisco worth the money?
I'm doing all I think I can do to get the door closed, we have a keyed door handle ready to go in but some are concerned about the rising temperature and the ceo doesn't want to put in a separate a/c unit, which they already have, in the closet. Dust is another big reason we want to get the door closed. A foot away from… -

Re: CV Concerns
Hi Banderas, Thought I would write a quick reply as I was once in your shoes, as many people probably have been. I first started studying in IT back in Nov 2005. I remember when I first got my A+ I couldn’t wait to get a job in IT. I applied day in and day out, until one day I got a job providing 1st line support for a… -
Re: Need an inside opinion
I apologize for how long this is in advance. I did want to illustrate this whole thing a bit better. I have a brother who is loosely in "IT". His employer offered to pay for his classes if he attended a community college to learn some basics. He calls me up asking me what classes he should take. He said he wanted to… -
Re: It's a network world
I've seen you say this a few times, and I have to respectfully disagree. "It's a networked world" is, frankly, a platitude. It's no more logical an argument than "become a certified electrician; all computers and networking equipment run off electricity" or "learn assembly; all systems run on assembly code". The fact of… -
Re: Medical IT / Medical Coding good mix for IT skills?
What are you studying? Moonchild's posts are interesting and I highly doubt it's a "tr011" post. The reason to their issue is "uncertainty", they are overly cautious of every situation. He's in better shoes than some people I know (at least he's got the M.Ed/BS CIS and is employed). I know some people in way worse of a…
