Re: Top cloud computing certifications to consider
EXIN Cloud is a foundation exam and covers the concepts of Cloud from a 10000 feet view and its for CXO's or CTO's level guys who need to have a overview of the cloud. Doesn't provide much by way on the nuts and bolts and its the same with Comptia as well, its pretty basic stuff Already working my way to the MCSE Private… -
Re: Where to start?
For the A+ exam I used Mike Meyer's all-in-one book . The book is a bible and covers absolutely everything on both tests. http://www.amazon.com/CompTIA-Certification-Edition-220-801-220-802/dp/007179512X I also recommend Professor Messer's videos. If you watch the entire course and read the book I mentioned you'll… -
Re: Certs without degree
In short yes, but your options will be smaller then if you had a degree. Some may disagree but I'll share my thoughts....Some companies require a degree. Either HR might not know what they are looking at cert wise or the company has a plethora of resumes when they post a position because everyone wants to work their or… -
Re: SOC what do I need to learn?
I don't think managed security services is market I can foresee myself sticking around for as you're constantly stuck in a position unless you quit to move on. Today we were told that they don't advance anyone until after 18 to 26 months. I came from a desktop/datacenter/ analyst roll where I was constantly groomed for… -
Re: C.V/Resume review please
Multiple issues - Extremely inconsistent capitalization: "Comptia", "installing ghost images", "The Building and configuration", "XP and server 2008", and many others - "customer facing" and "trouble shooting" need to be fixed. Always spell and grammar check - The boxes are driving me crazy. Not digging the format Now, my… -
Re: Lost and Directionless...
I don't see ANY reason to take the Network+. Here is what I would suggest since you are interested networking and security. Do the CCNA either by doing the CCENT + ICND2 or direct CCNA. I think the Network+ is a complete waste. The CCENT and CCNA are really not THAT hard. Yes you may give up six months of your life, but… -
Re: MCITP question
Comment by Claymoore · · Home› Certification Preparation› Microsoft› MCTS / MCITP on Windows 2008 GeneralUmm, what? There is no requirement for Exchange, SQL or ISA in the MCSE 2003 track. You can choose almost anything as an elective - even CompTIA exams - and if you chose Vista or Windows 7 you would only learn 'windows networking systems'. By no means does an MCSE know more about Windows than an MCITP EA. The MCITP was… -
Re: Cisco Network Academy: About?
Thats kind of the vibe I get from it, for it reminds me normal school books rather than a self study cert book. Its rather funny, but I spent pretty much all this past summer reading certification books while racking up on my CompTIA certs. Now during my last semester in school when I read a standard text books for my… -
Re: Trying to get back into IT...
First off, welcome to TE! The A+, at least around these parts, would get you into either a PC technician (break/fix role) or a tier I desktop support job. After the A+, you may want to try for the CompTIA triad to round out your skills and knowledge base (Net+ and Sec+). These exams will no longer have a lifetime shelf…
